Dear All,
As it is, the quote is so clear that it hardly needs any explanation.
Every one in the world is fully aware of any thing that we do which does which are against the accepted values and ideals of the society at large.
This flows from the truth that no matter what we are, no matter how we are, we are verily divine and we cannot escape from our divine conscience throwing light on our right and wrong doing(s)!
So, what we do?
We do not want to discuss about our conscience, we do not want to give time to introspect what our conscience conveys to us, we do not want to give an ear to any well wisher or any master who points out our mistakes.
This process is what is explained by Swamiji as "pulling a curtain/ turning a blind eye / putting it out of sight.
You start talking to any person addicted to alcohol/ woman/ any bad habit. Initially, his conscience (in fact, He the consciousness) will try to listen and accept but very soon, his mind sends him a red signal and says " Hey, do not listen, listen to me, your ego and keep away from the advice which is on".
Immediately, that person will escape from the scene, either on some pretext or, even by yelling at you saying, " Mind your business, I know what I have to do", or if he is a week hearted person, he will say " I know you are right, but I cannot stop now"!
This is how Mind, blinding our intellect, acting slave to our ego, blinds us and binds us to this samsara!!!
Think.....
Love
