Self Realization

Remember that whatever the scriptures or the holy texts say, when you want to get established in the self you should forget all of it.

Remember that just like the seeker of foodgrains throws away the husk after  he has received the grains, similarly the seeker of self should throw away all the knowledge that leads him to the self.

Remember that every thing whether material, physical, or mental gets extinguhished at the stage where the seeker achieves the self.

Remember that in this wilderness of the world, the mind does not find any repose in wealth, desires and pious deeds.

Self Realization

Remember that when you develop a complete indifference to the material world, the worries about performing or not performing tasks, the pairs of opposites, and the dualities will cease and thus you will become passionless and renounced.

Remember that in the supreme infinitude of the self there is no meditator. In your heart there is no meditation. You are the supreme, blissful, immortal self.

Remember that the body and the universe are unsubstantial.  The self is pure concsiousness. And so there need not for any imagination.

Remember that just like the cloth is nothing but the bundle of thread that was transformed into cloth, this universe is also nothing but the self from which it was created.

Remember that sugar made from sugarcane juice is permeated entirely by the sugar cane juice, similarly the universe is permeated both inside as well as outside by the self which created it.

Remember that you are unattached, actionless, self effugent and taintless. Your desire to meditate is indeed your bondage. Remember that "Samadhi" means the awareness of supreme consciousness as one's own self. A river being a continuous flow of water is never halted in its flow. Thus to a  man of wisdom, there is no time when he is not aware of the self within him.And when the self is all pervading, expressing consiousness in every being and every thing, there is no samadhi.

Remember that you pervade this universe and the universe is woven only in you. By nature you are pure cosnciousness. So you should not indulge in petty mindedness.

Remember that you are eternal, changeless, dense and of profound intelligence. You are serene and unperturbed. So desire consciousness alone.
