Namaste Swamiji . Realization has dawned with your teaching. Remaining there with nithithyasanam. Thank you

I uave been listening Mandukya by Swamiji since three months and it is now going to finish. I m in bit of depression as I fear I m gonna miss something valuable from my daily routine. It gave a tremendous meditative impact upon me that listening itself was more or less Nidhidyasan. I fear of losing such fantastic text fantastically and fluently explained by Swamiji. I dont know what to so next. Can anybody tell me from where I should find all discourses of swamiji at one place???

Of course, Tripura Rahasya has a slightly different view on what vasanas are inimical to realisation. It's more a tantric text with affinities to Advaita I guess.

109-12. The vasanas not inimical to realisation are not weeded out by the best class of Jnanis because they cannot seek new ones to crowd the old out. Therefore the old ones continue until they are exhausted and thus you find among them some highly irritable, some lustful and others pious and dutiful, and so on.

But, this might be that such vasanas aren't inimical to the breakthrough or permanent awakening, but they are exhausted in the nididhyasana process to enjoy the fruits of moksha.
