Bhagavan frequently told me [Annamalai Swami] that I should be aware of the

Self while I was working.

 

He repeatedly told me, 'Don't forget your real nature. It is not necessary

that you should sit and meditate. You should meditate all the time, even

while you are working.'

 

In the beginning, when I first came to Bhagavan, I asked him for a mantra.

In response he told me to repeat 'Siva Siva' continuously. Later, Bhagavan

advised me to keep my attention in the Heart while I was working. I had read

that Bhagavan had spoken of a place called the Heart-centre which he located

in the right side of the chest. I had assumed that Bhagavan wanted me to

concentrate on this particular centre. However, when I started to practise

in this way, Bhagavan stopped me and corrected me.

 

'This right-side Heart-centre is not the true Heart, " he said. 'The real

Heart is not located anywhere. It is all-pervasive.'

 

'Stop meditating on the Heart-centre,' he continued. 'Find the source. That

is the true Heart. Just as electricity comes not from the individual meter

boxes in people's houses but from a single source, so too the whole world

has a single source, which is the Self or the Heart. Seek and enquire into

this source of limitless energy. If the centre of the Self were really

located in the body, the Self would die when the body dies. "
