Vijnana Bhairava Tantra · Dharana 30 · Verse 53

World burned by fire

The same fire, now turned toward the world. See the whole field of events, places, and people consumed, and remain as the one who sees. The point is not contempt for the world. The point is to feel, even briefly, that what you are is not the same as the passing scene. After the sitting, let that recognition touch ordinary trouble: the scene can pass. What sees it does not have to pass with it.
