47. Right poise is to be gained by steady and temperate effort, and by setting the heart upon the everlasting. Here again, there is the two fold meaning, for physical poise is to be gained by steady effort of the muscles, by gradual and wise training, linked with a right understanding of, and relation with, the universal force of gravity. Uprightness of body demands that both these conditions shall be fulfilled.

ower, without losing freedom. In His will is our peace. And with that peace comes light. Soul-vision is perfected through obedience. 46. Right poise must be firm and without strain. Here we approach a section of the teaching which has manifestly a two-fold meaning. The first is physical, and concerns the bodily position of the student, and the regulation of breathing. These things have their direct influence upon soul-life, the life of the spiritual man, since it is always and everywhere true that our study demands a sound mind in a sound body. The present sentence declares that, for work and for meditation, the position of the body must be steady and without strain, in order that the finer currents of life may run their course. It applies further to the poise of the soul, that fine balance and stability which nothing can shake, where the consciousness rests on the firm foundation of spiritual being. This is indeed the house set upon a rock, which the winds and waves beat upon in vain.  REST AND POWER WITHOUT LOSING FREEDOM IN HIS WILL IS OUR PEACE AND WITH THAT PEACE COMES LIGHT SOLE VISION IS PERFECTED THROUGH OBEDIENCE SUTRA FORTY SIX RIGHT POISE MUST BE FIRM AND WITHOUT STRAIN HERE WE APPROACH A SECTION OF THE TEACHING WHICH HAS MANIFESTLY A TWOFOLD MEANING THE FIRST IS PHYSICAL AND CONCERNS THE BODILY POSITION OF THE STUDENT AND THE REGULATION OF BREATHING THESE THINGS HAVE THEIR DIRECT INFLUENCE UPON SOUL LIFE THE LIFE OF THE SPIRITUAL MAN SINCE IT IS ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE TRUE THAT OUR STUDY DEMANDS A SOUND MIND IN A SOUND BODY THE PRESENT SENTENCE DECLARES THAT FOR WORK AND FOR MEDITATION THE POSITION OF THE BODY MUST BE STEADY AND WITHOUT STRAIN IN ORDER THAT THE FINER CURRENTS OF LIFE MAY RUN THEIR COURSE IT APPLIES FURTHER TO THE POISE OF THE SOUL THAT FINE BALANCE AND STABILITY WHICH NOTHING CAN SHAKE WHERE THE CONSCIOUSNESS RESTS ON THE FIRM FOUNDATION OF SPIRITUAL BEING THIS IS INDEED THE HOUSE SET UPON A ROCK WHICH THE WINDS AND WAVES BEAT UPON IN VAIN
