Lakshmana Swamy: Self-enquiry, I

[Guest guest]

The first thought to appear is the 'I'-thought.

It rises in the Heart and, in a split second,

travels to the brain, identifies with the body

and the senses, and then sees the world

around it as a real world.

 

Follow the quest 'Who am I?'.

Follow the 'I' back to its source.

When the 'I' goes back to its source and identifies

with the Self instead of with the senses,

there is eternal peace and bliss. To do this

you have to get rid of all thoughts. The first

of all thoughts is the 'I'-thought. Give up all other

thoughts and catch hold of the 'I'-thought.

The Self will then embrace that 'I' and devour it.
