Just as there is a remedy through discrimination for the impure latent impressions concerning learning, wealth, anger, women, and sons, so also for other latent impressions, discerning the fault appropriately by means of the scriptures and by one's own reasoning, one should apply a remedy. And when the remedy is applied, the supreme state characterized by liberation while living is obtained. Thus says Vasiṣṭha:
"If you make an effort toward the abandonment of latent impressions,
then all your mental anxieties and physical ailments will instantly become weakened." / — (in the Yogavāsiṣṭha Rāmāyaṇa, Upaśamaprakaraṇa 92.9).
