Wisdom
(
fragments - page 2 )
Self-enquiry alone can reveal the
truth that neither the ego nor the mind really exist
and enable one to realize the pure undifferentiated
being of the Self or the absolute.
* * *
In the eye of the jnani there are
no others, so there is nothing like mingling with
others for him.
* * *
There is nothing nor is there anyone
to become enlightened since the Self is already
realized.
* * *
Only the body has death and birth
and it is illusion. There is in reality, neither
birth nor death.
* * *
Is there any way of adoring the
Supreme, which is All, except by abiding firmly
as That!
* * *
Realization is nothing to be gained
afresh; it is already there.
All that is necessary is to get rid of the thought
"I have not realized".
* * *
Q: Does my realization help others?
A: Yes, certainly. It is the best help possible.
But there are no others to be helped.
* * *
Your duty is to be and not to be
this or that.
The method is summarized in "Be still".
* * *
There is in reality no change, no
creation.
* * *
Do not meditate – be!
Do not think that you are – be!
Do not think about being – you are!
* * *
Liberation is our very nature.
