Internal latitudinal transformation is essential for bringing about external ( behavioral) changes, because violence first takes place in the mind of man. According to modern scientific opinion endocrina glandular and systemic bio-chemical secretions govern, to a large extent, emotional behaviour of man. From this point of view, three kinds of changes have to be effected transforming thoughts, emotions and feelings and bio-chemical reactions. All the three kinds of changes are inter connected. Feelings rise from the heart (psyche) and influence and mind, thereby generating a corresponding thought. In this way, feeling controls thought. For changing bio-chemical reactions, transforming feelings, mind and thought is necessary.

Transformation of the heart is our goal. But the same can not be effected unless hyper-activity of the mind is brought to a state of rest. The first and foremost task is to reduce hyper-activity. A state of restfulness is not laziness of escape from engagement. It is, in fact, a necessary process of gathering strength and energy for accomplishment.

The second step in the process of transformation of the heart is minimizing the intensity of attachment and avernon to sensation, thereby bringing about an attitude of equipoise. The third step is generating positive feelings by putting a stop to indulgence in negative feelings. Anger, pride, lust, fear, enmity, possessiveness, intolerance and hatred and negative and destructivity feelings leading to competition, cruelty, revenge, criminality , conflict, rebelliousness and dissatisfaction. These can be eliminated and positive feelings can be generated through asanas, pranayam, kayaotsarg, anupresksha and dhyan. This is a sure way to transformation of the heart or psychic transformation.
