You are the Supreme Being, and yet thinking yourself to be separate from it, you strive to become united with it. What is stranger than this?

The 'I' casts off the illusion of the 'I' and yet remains 'I'. Such is the paradox of Self-realization. The Realized do not see any paradox in it. Consider the case of the worshipper. He approaches God and prays to be absorbed in Him. He then surrenders himself in faith and by concentration. And what remains afterwards? In the place of the original 'I', self-surrender leaves a residuum of God in which the 'I' is lost. That is the highest form of devotion or surrender and the peak of detachment.

Once the current of awareness of the self is set afoot, it becomes everlasting and continuous by intensification.

Pure Consciousness, which is the Heart, includes all, and nothing is outside or apart from it. That is the ultimate Truth.

Does one require proof of one's own being? Only remain aware of yourself and all else will be known.

There is nothing new to gain. On the other hand a man must lose his ignorance. That is all.

Peace is for the purification of one's mind. Power is for the growth of the community. Having established the community with power, one should then establish supreme peace.
