It is the Self. So that is the real source of your activity. Simply be aware of it during your work and do not forget it. Contemplate in the background of your mind even whilst working. To do that, do not hurry, take your own time. Keep the remembrance of your real nature alive, even while working, and avoid haste which causes you to forget. Be deliberate. Practise meditation to still the mind and cause it to become aware of its true relationship to the Self which supports it. Do not imagine it is you who are doing the work. Think that it is the underlying current which is doing it. Identify yourself with the current. If you work unhurriedly, recollectedly, your work or service need not be a hindrance. - Sri Ramana Maharshi ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` This quotation is from "Be As You Are"The Teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshiedited by David GodmanArkana, 1985Lead me from the unreal to the realLead me from darkness to lightLead me from death to immortality. - Invocation from the UpanishadsArchive for can be accessed at:/messagesSubscribe: -Un: Your use of is subject to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
