There is an inherent contradiction in this scheme followed as an early sādhanā. Mind is that which projects the sense objects and it is the mind, again, that is running towards the objects. To run into the mind is in fact equivalent to running into the mouth of the sense objects themselves! In short, we cannot avoid the world of plurality and its undivine enchantments by any horizontal movement. Wherever you run, you are still a captive of your mind. Only by lifting ourselves in the vertical movement to the higher plane of Consciousness can we rise above the shackles of the mind.
