Whatever be the means adopted, you must at last return to the Self, so why not abide as the Self here and now?

The solution to your problem is to see who has it.

Beyond the belief that something can be lost, there is nothing to lose.

Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind. Therefore the mind is subtler than the atom. That which is behind the mind, namely the individual soul, is subtler than the mind.

The mind is only a bundle of thoughts. The thoughts have their root in the I-thought. Whoever investigates the True "I" enjoys the stillness of bliss.

If the mind falls asleep, awaken it. Then if it starts wandering, make it quiet. If you reach the state where there is neither sleep nor movement of mind, stay still in that, the natural (real) state.

See who is the subject; and this inquiry leads you to pure Consciousness beyond the subject.
