TADA VIVEKNIMNAM KIAWALYA PRAGBHARAM CHITTAM
THEN THE CHITTA - MIND STUFF FLOWS FROM KAIWALYA TO VIVEK
In the last Sutra we were told that when the PURUSHA is recognizes to be separate from the CHITTA - the mind stuff and it is 'SAT CHIT ANAND'- always bliss - this is sepcial ATMA DARSHAN -self realization , one has reached highest level of KAIWALYA , So in this SUTRA we are told that when this stage of Samadhi is reached the mind or CHITTA flows from highest level to the VIVEK status of mind . Some have interpreted it as mind flows towards KIAWALYA.
When we are doing meditation and trying to achieve the highest levels of Samadhi, we often say that we are climbiming the steps . So when one reaches the highest level of the SAMADHI, we are at the higher level than when the mind or the CHITTA is full of ordinary day to day stuff. When I am writing this,I am thinking about many things,like I need to do my rounds , what am I going to eat for lunch, what else do I need do before the week end id done with etc . So my mind is not at any level of heights that one reaches when we have successfully reached SAMADHI'S highest level. At that stage we do certainly have to do have to do and act and think about the day to day activities and duties . But the mind of a Yogi who has achieved this level goes from highest level of Samadhi to lower level of day to day activity with VIVEK. The intention of doing activity is much different NOW -in person who has experience the BLISS or the KIWALYA stage , that ordinary person . The ordinary person does things with intention of getting bodily pleasure or satisfying ego or making money etc . But once the KAIWALYA is achieved ,one act with VIVEK. The VIVEK is not control of thought or intentions, but it is natural way of mind which has no desires or motives with any activity or action that is performed . So the flow of CHITTA or mind stuff is not towards ordinary goals anymore .
One thing that this Sutra is telling that once the Samadhi is achieved , every thing does not disappear. So the physical body is still there and it will have all the afflictions that body has and also the mind and the ego and the intellect - all are there and one will continue to ;live' as long as one has to live . These things do not disappear . But the intent behind the 'living' is changed .
