Maharshi-the I continues in sleep as well as now.

[Guest guest]

Is there a sixth sense to feel "I AM" ?

 

Bhagavan:

 

Do you deny your existence ? Do you not remain yourself even in sleep ?

As for the senses , they work only periodically. Their works begin and end;

whereas the "I" continues in sleep as well as now. There must be a

substratum on which the activities of the senses depend. Where do they

appear and merge ? There must be a single substratum . That is the Self

of which they are not independent . It is the power which works through

them.
