You are the somewhere you are trying to get to.

Attempting to understand consciousness with your mind, is like trying to illuminate the sun with a candle.

Don't remind the world that it is sick and troubled. Remind it that it is beautiful and free.

Don't let your mind see through your eyes.

You wake up each day from the dream; but to be free, you must also wake up from the waking state.

Self-Enquiry is not asking you to believe or to trust - it is putting a mirror in front of you and asking you to look. Enquiry is suited to many people in the West, because we are more mental. And it is very direct. So unsparing is its look that nothing can escape.

To change the world is not your mission. To change yourself is not your duty. To awaken to your true nature is your opportunity.
