Call it by any name, God, Self, the Heart, or the Seat of Consciousness, it is all the same.

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

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

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.

The master is within; meditation is meant to remove the ignorant idea that he is only outside. If he is a stranger whom you await, he is bound to disappear also. What is the use of a transient being like that? But so long as you think you are separate or that you are the body, an external master is also necessary and he will appear to have a body. When the wrong identification of oneself with the body ceases, the master will be found to be none other than the Self.

There is nothing so simple as being the Self. It requires no effort, no aid. One has to leave off the wrong identity and be in his (her) eternal, natural, inherent state.

We are always peace. To get rid of the idea that we are not peace is all that is required.
