The person merely appears to be, like the space within the pot appears to have the shape and volume and smell of the pot.” The sum total of these defines the person. There are only restrictions and limitations. So is my mind – the impressions keep on coming, but no trace is left.” When the ribbon is removed, typing leaves no trace on the paper. The reading and the meaning will vary with the reader, but the paper is the common factor, always present, rarely perceived. “The world is like a sheet of paper on which something is typed. “All you have to do is to give attention to the obstacles created by the foolish mind.” Nothing can take me out of it, no torture, no calamity.” There is something changeless, motionless, immovable, rock-like, unassailable a solid mass of pure being-consciousness-bliss. The very intensity of longing will guide you you need no other guide.” “Your first task is to see the sorrow in you and around you your next, to long intensely for liberation. Your body and your mind are born subject to time only awareness is timeless, even in the now.” The timeless can be reached only by the timeless. The mind is not the right instrument for this task. “Put your awareness to work, not your mind. They are there because you find them interesting.” “You are not in the body, the body is in you! The mind is in you. The mind cannot know what is beyond the mind, but the mind is known by what is beyond it.” It makes everything perceivable, yet itself is beyond perception. “To locate a thing you need space, to place an event you need time but the timeless and spaceless defies handling. The death of the mind is the birth of wisdom.” Or, you may keep your body and die only in the mind. “You may die a hundred deaths without a break in the mental turmoil. Open the shutter of the mind, and it will be flooded with light.” To know the nature of the mind, you need intelligence, the capacity to look at the mind in silent and dispassionate awareness.” “The mind covers up reality, without knowing it. In the light of calm and steady self-awareness inner energies wake up and work miracles without effort on your part.” As the sun on rising makes the world active, so does self-awareness affect changes in the mind.
All else will happen rightly, once your mind is quiet. “The mind craves for formulations and definitions, always eager to squeeze reality into a verbal shape.” Multiplicity and diversity are in the mind only.” “Reality all is here and now and all is one. “When the mind is kept away from its preoccupation, it becomes quiet.”
