The ultimate truth is so simple; it is nothing more than being in one’s natural, original state.

What comes will also go. What always is will alone remain.

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

The state we call realization is simply being oneself, not knowing anything or becoming anything.

It is within your competence to think and thus to get bound or to cease thinking and thus be free.

It is false to speak of realization. What is there to realize? The real is as it is always. We are not creating anything new or achieving something which we did not have before. The illustration given in books is this. We dig a well and create a huge pit. The space in the pit or well has not been created by us. We have just removed the earth which was filling the space there. The space was there then and is also there now. Similarly we have simply to throw out all the age-long sanskaras [innate tendencies] which are inside us. When all of them have been given up, the Self will shine alone.

There is neither creation nor destruction, neither destiny nor free will, neither path nor achievement. This is the final truth.
