Any caterpillar who tried to “know himself” would never become a butterfly.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
Bright but hidden, the Self dwells in the heart. Everything that moves, breathes, opens, and closes Lives in the Self. Self is the source of love and may be known through love but not through thought. Attain this goal!
To become conscious we must become Self-aware in the awareness of the observer Self-observing.
That the birds of worry and care fly over your head, this you cannot change, but that they build nests in your hair, this you can prevent.
One’s inner light alone is the means, naught else. When this inner light is kept alive, it is not affected by the darkness of inertia.
Just don’t seek from another or you’ll be far estranged from Self. I now go on alone meeting it everywhere, it now is just what I am; I now am not it. You must comprehend in this way to merge with thus-ness.
Everything is expression of our own intelligence. Through simple, innocent, natural unbounded awareness-fullness of Self, all is accomplished… Only we should not be influenced by the winds.
