nothing

[Guest guest]

D.: In my meditation a blank interposes; I see no figure.

M: Of course not.

 

D.: What about the blank?

M: Who sees the blank? You must be there. There is consciousness

witnessing the blank.

 

D.: Does it mean that I must go deeper and deeper?

M: Yes. There is no moment when you are not.

 

.. . .

 

 

D.: Is there thought in Samadhi? Or is there not?

M: There will only be the feeling 'I am' and no other thoughts.

 

D.: Is not ' I am' a thought?

M: The ego less 'I am' is not thought. It is realisation. The

meaning or significance of 'I' is God. The experience of 'I am' is

to Be Still.

 

.. . .

 

D.: How to know the Self?

M: Are there two 'I's? How do you know your own existence?

Do you see yourself with these eyes? Question yourself. How does

this question arise? Do I remain to ask it or not? Can I find my

Self as in a mirror?

 

Because your outlook has been outward bent, it has lost sight of the

Self and your vision is external. The Self is not found in external

objects. Turn your look within and plunge down; you will be the Self.

 

 

.. . .

 

D.: This 'I-thought' rises from me. But I do not know the Self.

M: All these are only mental concepts. You are now identifying

yourself with a wrong 'I', which is the 'I-thought'. This 'I-

thought' rises and sinks, whereas the true significance of 'I' is

beyond both.

 

There cannot be a break in your being.

 

You, who slept, are also now awake. There was not unhappiness in

your deep sleep. Whereas it , exists now. What is it that has

happened now so that this difference is experienced? There was no 'I-

thought' in your sleep, whereas it is present now. The true 'I' is

not apparent and the false 'I' is parading itself. This false 'I' is

the obstacle to your right knowledge. Find out wherefrom this

false 'I' arises. Then it will disappear. You will 'be only what you

are - i.e., absolute Being.
