Concentration of the mind is in a way common to both Knowledge and Yoga. Yoga aims at union of the individual with the universal, the Reality. This Reality cannot be new. It must exist even now, and it does exist.

Jnana is given neither from outside nor from another person. It can be realised by each and everyone in his own Heart. The jnana Guru of everyone is only the Supreme Self that is always revealing its own truth in every Heart through the being-conciousness 'I am, I am.' The granting of true knowledge by him is initiation into jnana. The grace of the Guru is only that Self-awareness that is one's own true nature. It is the inner conciousness by which he is unceasingly revealing his existence. This divine upadesa is always going on naturally in everyone.

The "I" thought is said to be the sum total of all thoughts. The source of the "I" thought has to be inquired into.

There are no impediments to meditation. The very thought of such obstacles is the greatest impediment.

A higher power is leading you; be led by the same. It knows what to do and how to do it.

The ultimate truth is so simple. It is nothing more than being in the pristine state. This is all that needs to be said. Only mature minds can grasp the simple truth in all its nakedness.

When your real, effortless, joyful grateful nature is realized, it will not be inconsistent with the ordinary activities of life.
