Keep looking until you discover the wondrous heart, the marvelous mind, that is the very basis of your being.

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.
