तस्य परशान्त वाहित संस्कारात्
Tasya Prashanta Vahita Samskarath||
When the mind is stilled and quietened by restraint, it flows quietly like a river due to constant practice. At this stage, when the mind flows with a unified thought, no other disturbance can affect it. Samskara means to cleanse, purify and make good something. You take a stone and do enough Samskara to it and becomes a polished statue. In the same way, with constant practice of Vairagya - dispassion, the mind ceases to go behind likes and dislikes and flows with unity. Ramana Maharishi compares such a mind to a fall of melted ghee which is smooth and uninterrupted as it is viscous. Long periods of observation and training brings out this transformation.
