Resorting to a sequestered spot, eating but little, speech and body and mind subdued, always engaged in meditation and concentration, endued with dispassion;
Read the commentary
Resorting, etc. : ever accustomed to resort to such sequestered spots as a jungle, the sandbank of, a river, the mountain-cave. Eating but little : as conducive to the serenity of thought by keeping off sleep and such other evils. This devotee of wisdom should also restrain his speech, body and mind. With all the senses thus quieted, he should always and devoutly practise Dhyāna or mediation upon the nature of the Self, and Yoga or concentration of the mind on the Self. Always: : this implies that he has to do nothing else, no mantrajapa (repetition of chants or mystic formulae), etc. Dispassion : absence of desire for visible and invisible objects. This should be a constant attitude of the mind.
