The Mind Is Only A

If One Watches Whence The Notion 'i' Arises, The Mind Gets Absorbed There; That Is Tapas. When A Mantra Is Repeated, If One Watches Whence That Mantra Sound Arises, The Mind Gets Absorbed There; That Is Tapas.

Why Should We... Constantly Worry Ourselves... As To What Should Be Done And How, And What Should Not Be Done And How Not? We Know That The Train Carries All Loads, So After Getting On It Why Should We Carry Our Small Luggage On Our Head To Our Discomfort, Instead Of Putting It Down In The Train And Feeling At Ease?

How To Get Rid Of The Mind? Is It The Mind That Wants To Kill Itself? The Mind Cannot Kill Itself. So Your Business Is To Find The Real Nature Of The Mind. Then You Will Know That There Is No Mind. When The Self Is Sought, The Mind Is Nowhere. Abiding In The Self, One Need Not Worry About The Mind.

It Is False To Speak Of Realization. What Is There To Realize? The Real Is As It Is Always. We Are Not Creating Anything New Or Achieving Something Which We Did Not Have Before. The Illustration Given In Books Is This. We Dig A Well And Create A Huge Pit. The Space In The Pit Or Well Has Not Been Created By Us. We Have Just Removed The Earth Which Was Filling The Space There. The Space Was There Then And Is Also There Now. Similarly We Have Simply To Throw Out All The Age-long Sanskaras [innate Tendencies] Which Are Inside Us. When All Of Them Have Been Given Up, The Self Will Shine Alone.

Whenever A Thought Arises, Instead Of Trying Even A Little Either To Follow It Up Or To Fulfil It, It Would Be Better To First Enquire, "to Whom Did This Thought Arise?"
