In thinking, “This is I” and “That is mine”, he binds himself with his self, as does a bird with a snare.
The self-confidence one builds from achieving difficult things and accomplishing goals is the most beautiful thing of all.
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door, and open the love-window. The moon won’t use the door, only the window.
You should discover your own reality and not thwart yourself. For you have the self as your only friend, or as your only enemy.
If a man considers that he is born, he cannot avoid the fear of death. Let him find out if he has been born or if the Self has any birth. ...Find from where thoughts emerge. Then you will be able to abide in the ever-present inmost Self and be free from the idea of birth or the fear of death.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
Service without ideal of self…trains you to transcend all the artificial distinctions imposed by history and geography, and to realise that the human community is one and indivisible.
If you wish to be free, know you are the Self, the witness of all these, the heart of awareness. Set your body aside, sit in your own awareness. You will at once be happy, forever still, forever free.
