There is no need for sorry and it is not a trouble too. What I have said is that many things are being discussed in the remaining verses.

Most of these questions are being addressed in subsequent parts. Prāṇa and its modifications play an important role in our action. Prāṇāyama undoubtedly helps in keeping our mind calm, on a comparative basis. As for Self-realization is concerned, we have to go more with buddhi and Self-inquiry like "Who am I" and buddhi alone will tell you, "you are That." Affirmations are also important in Self-realization. We are nearing 50% of Vivekachudamani. Most of your doubts are being addressed in the balance 50%.

Thank you Guruji. The question is like this. How do we purify the buddhi, mind is purified by work and nadi shodhana. But how is buddhi purified, is it by repeated enquire of who am i?Secondly suppose both have been puried and by using both now when we meditate how does one find the Self within? As it says that we should meditate on the above concept of Brahman which is after negating all the koshas. So while doing that, doesn't it mean that we should do some searching within us when meditating, like observing nothing? So at that time do we automatically realise provided both are puried or should we search . If we have search how should we search at this stage (is it that we have to assume the negation logic and meditate)?

We are only negating buddhi as the Self. But buddhi continues to exist and as discussed earlier, realization will happen only through mind and buddhi. Look at what Guru says here repeatedly; You are That and meditate on this fact". The verse says that he has to use his mind to meditate. Hence mind and buddhi are necessary in their purest forms, without any impressions to realize the Self.

How do you use your Buddhi, to realize the Self? Meaning after understanding that the pancgakosha are not the Self, how will the buddhi proceed now to understand and see the Self. How does the buddhi think at this stage?
