Maitri Upaniṣad 6.34
"The mind is said to be of two kinds - pure and impure."
What This Means:
There are two states of mind - one that is pure and conducive to realization, one that is impure and causes bondage.
Going Deeper:
The impure mind is full of desires and aversions; the pure mind is transparent to the Self.
How To Apply This:
Work to purify your mind through right action, right thought, and meditation.
