Dear friends,

 

The Sage continued:

 

You do not belong to the Brahmana or any other caste or to any Ashrama.

You are not visible to the eyes. Unattached, formless and witness of

all are you. Be happy.

 

Virtue and vice, pleasure and pain, are of the mind, not of you, oh

All-Pervading One. You are neither doer nor enjoyer. Verily you are

ever free.

 

You are the one seer of all and really are ever free. Verily this alone

is your bóndage that you see the seer as other than such.

 

 

from Ashtavakra Gita

p.5-8

 

 

I was thinking of copying out more as the verses are very short, but

the content is so condensed that every word brims with meaning. Three

are enough for one night to ponder or better, set into action, I feel.

 

Have a peaceful night

 

Chris
