The greatest obstacle to enlightenment is getting past your delusion that you are not already enlightened.

If a man considers that he is born, he cannot avoid the fear of death. Let him find out if he has been born or if the Self has any birth. He will discover that the Self always exists, that the body that is born resolves itself into thought and that the emergence of thought is the root of all mischief. Find from where thoughts emerge. Then you will be able to abide in the ever-present inmost Self and be free from the idea of birth or the fear of death.

The main factor in meditation is to keep the mind active in its own pursuit without taking in external impressions or thinking of other matters.

Reality is simply the loss of ego. Destroy the ego by seeking its identity. Because the ego is no entity it will automatically vanish and reality will shine forth by itself.

Engage yourself in the living present. The future will take care of itself.

Why should you trouble yourself about the future? You do not even properly know about the present. Take care of the present, the future will take care of itself.

Instead of indulging in mere speculation, devote yourself here and now to the search for the Truth that is ever within you.
