Why Is the Manas Easily Influenced by Perfuming During Meditation?

Why is it that when sitting in meditation, it is easier to think things through and understand, and the manas is more easily influenced and imprinted? Because when sitting in meditation, the mind consciousness becomes still and no longer engages in deluded thinking, so erroneous cognition and inference rarely occur in its discernment—direct perception predominates. In this way, it is easier to imprint the manas, and it will also lead the manas to deliberate on the Dharma principles together, making it easier to comprehend the principles and to penetrate them quickly.
