Educational Q&A
Single-pointed devotion and meditation require restraint of the senses and minimal dependence on bodily intake; equally, the environment should be kept free of disturbances so that spiritual practice is not obstructed.
Bhishma describes a group of radiant ascetic devotees intent on meditating upon the divine, and he states that others should withdraw so their contemplation remains undisturbed.
