Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Maharishi: ... You cannot deny yourself at any time. The Self is ever there and continues in all states. Disciple: Should I remain as if in sleep and be watchful at the same time? M.: Yes. Watchfulness is the waking state. Therefore the state will not be one of sleep, but sleepless sleep. If you go the way of your thoughts you will be carried away by them and you will find yourself in an endless maze. D.: So, then, I must go back tracing the source of thoughts. M.: Quite so; in that way the thoughts will disappear and the Self alone will remain. In fact there is no inside or outside for the Self. They are also projections of the ego. The Self is pure and absolute. - Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
