Vritti is the temperament that you have developed through your three Gunas (Satva, Rajas, and Tamas). That is why this Attention becomes identified with you and when you are identified with this Vritti, or temperament, meaning you are still in mis-identified area. Let us take case of somebody who has been possessed before.
Now coming to Sahaja Yoga his possession goes away. But the memory remains in the brain that he was possessed and the memory is stronger in a person, left side is stronger, then that memory lingers on. And as soon as that person comes in contact with any one which has got something to do with the past possession, it clicks and the whole thing starts coming into, bubbling out and you think you are again possessed. It is the memory which gives you, ‘it is a myth’.
It is the memory that tells you ‘Oh! You are again possessed’. Since left side is weak, means you always live in your memory – your memory is stronger than yourself. If you could make yourself stronger than your memory, nothing can possess you. But after you get your realization, you are not still identified with the state of mind in which you see your ego and super-ego as myths.
In an innocent child, in a pure simple way of Attention, he sees everything in “Pratyksha”, means in actual experiencing of something for a child, because he has no memory. So he will have to burn his hand to feel that this burns. He has to touch something cold to know that it is cold.
His memory is not yet built up. So into the actual experiencing of it, he lives, but that actual experiencing becomes memory. And once the memory is built up stronger, the whole personality is effected by memory.
