It is subject still to intrusions                    of the mental intuitivity from the environment mind, but these are                    compelled to see or to transform themselves. The stuff of mind in                    the physical conscience still contains unilluminated movements of                    obscure matter, but the pressure of the light on them is constant.                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 150%;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;text-indent:25px\" align=\"justify\">The lipi is the most perfect of the members of the vijnana,                    free in its action, free from the lower elements, established in the                    vijnana.

The action is free in concentration, but there                    are still the intrusive or untransformed elements of the physical                    mind. Except for this defect it is established in the first vijnana.                    The representative vijnana with all its three elements (representa-                    tive, interpretative, imperative) is seeking to fix itself in the bodily                    consciousness of the Shakti in place of the revelatory + intuitive                    representative vijnana.                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 150%;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;text-indent:25px\" align=\"justify\">It takes possession of all but the head.                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 150%;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;text-indent:25px\" align=\"justify\">The obstruction still reigns in the rupa siddhi, vishaya, sharira,                    and the Tapas as yet can only diminish, but not overcome the ob- struction. In Samadhi the basis has been laid, but sleep and dream                    continue.                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 150%;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;text-indent:25px\" align=\"justify\">Tapas is working for Arogya and physical Ananda, the latter                    well-prepared and only forcibly held away by the obstruction.

There has long been an effort from below                    insisted on and aided from above; this is the immediate action                    from above, a solution of the difficulty by the involved process.

Occasionally there is the repre-                    sentative vijnana.                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 150%;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;text-indent:25px\" align=\"justify\">\n\t\t\t==<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 150%;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0;text-indent:25px\" align=\"justify\">No decisive progress in the rest, but a pressure on the habitual                    passive obstruction in rupa[,] vishaya and samadhi (lone fleeting tejomaya scene) and on the active opposition in the sharira.
