"Therefore, it is said: 'Dhyāna mūlaṁ guru mūrtiḥ, pūjā mūlaṁ guru padam, mantra mūlaṁ guru vākyaṁ, mokṣa mūlaṁ guru kṛpā.'"

A spiritual discourse exploring the nature of mental habits (vṛtti) and the soul's (ātmā) oneness with the divine. "Vṛtti is what you are doing. You have good food to eat. But after eating this and that, you go outside to eat some ice cream... So that is a vṛtti." "Below is the ocean, Shiva, and this one drop is Jīva... Now, if this drop falls into the ocean, then this Jīva becomes Shiva."
