When the mind withdraws, then liberation will be

Nivṛtti — withdrawal, cessation, the inverse movement of pravṛtti (projection outward). It is not repression or escape; it is mind ceasing to project outward and recognizing its own source. When the beam of light turns back upon itself instead of illuminating objects, it discovers that it itself is light. Liberation is not a future event; it is the present nature of consciousness revealed when projection ceases.
