True solitude arises from one’s delinking of his body,senses,mind and intellect.

One ought not to make his spiritual discipline dependant upon any circumstance, it may be solitude or company of men.One ought to make such discipline according to one’s own circumstances.

One desirous of solitude is dependant on cirumstance;one who reamins subject to such dependance is a seeker of pleasure but not an aspirant (Bhogi not a Yogi).

An aspirant should have neither attraction for the public;nor for solitude.Circumstances do not bring about salvation rather it follows detachment.

To go to unpeopled places or to lie alone,is mistaken solitude,so long as the body of this world,the seed is there.So long as there is a link with the body,one continues to be attached to the world.

The body is a part of the world.So detachment of the body and not to have any ego or mineness for the same,is true solitude.

Interest in solitude for an aspirant is good,but not with any attachment.Insistence on solitude might cause disturbance in his inner faculties on not getting it and reinforce the importance of the world.
