ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Maravijaya

Maravijaya is a Sanskrit word which means "victory over desire" or "conquest over the mind".

Now imagine you really want to eat a delicious candy bar that you see in a store. It looks so yummy and you can almost taste it in your mouth. But, your mom has told you that you can't buy any candy because you already had enough sweets today. Your mind is telling you that you really want that candy bar and it's hard to resist that temptation.

That's where maravijaya comes in. It is like having a superhero power to control your thoughts and desires. Even though your mind is telling you that you want the candy, with maravijaya, you can say "No" to your mind and control your desire. You don't need the candy, and you have the power to say "No" to it.

This is a very important skill to have because it can help you be more disciplined and make better choices in life. It's like having a superhero power to control your own thoughts and desires, and that's what maravijaya is all about.
