The Dance of the Expansion of Mind – Excerpt A
9 November 1978, Calcutta

Furthermore, it is found that human beings are sometimes affected by various diseases; and frequently they are faced with various difficulties with respect to their sádhaná. These impediments may or may not be major. For instance, small diseases like liver trouble, may cause problems from time to time, and to remove these types of hindrances, I invented the kaośikii [“the expansion of mind”] dance on the sixth of September 1978. This dance serves as an antidote to twenty-two types of diseases.(1) All these are primarily meant to first of all ensure objective adjustment: and thereafter, they vibrate the cittáńu [ectoplasmic stuff] which in turn is concentrated at a certain point touching the point of the soul, where Parama Puruśa resides.
