Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. The lecture begins by explaining Asmita, the apparent identity of the seer and the seen. This allows Raga, obsessive attachment to enslave us. At the same time, Dvesa, obsessive hatred comes to enslave us. Swami gives the famous imagery of a chariot from the Katha-Upanisad to explain the power of controlling the senses and linking the mind to Atman, our transcendental nature. Lastly, Abhinivesa, the fear of death can also be countered by the knowledge of reincarnation. Verses: II.6, II.7, II.8, II.9
