13. Opposition of the Hostile Forces

Fragment ID: 4002

It is not a fact that the Rajayogin or others are not attacked by environmental forces. Whether Moksha or transformation be the aim, all are attacked – because the vital forces want neither liberation nor transformation. Only the yogins speak of it in general terms as Rakshasi Maya or the attacks of kāma, krodha, lobha,– they don’t care to trace these things to their sources or watch how they come in,– but the thing itself is known to all.
