Spiritual Quotes On chit

There are two paths to realize Bhagwan (God; the absolute Self): one is indirect worship (paroksh bhakti) of Bhagwan, and the other is direct worship (pratyaksh bhakti) of Bhagwan. In paroksh bhakti, the tendencies of the chit do not remain engrossed in Bhagwan. In pratyaksh bhakti, the tendencies of the chit remain constantly engrossed in Bhagwan. Without realizing who Bhagwan is in the Real sense, pratyaksh bhakti cannot arise.

The worldly chit (inner component of knowledge and vision) is considered impure chit. Impure chit is mishrachetan (a mixture of the Self and the non-Self). The chit that becomes pure is the shuddha Chetan (pure Self).
