It is enough that objects be removed

 

 

 

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

 

Realisation is nothing to be gained afresh; it is already

there. All that is necessary is to get rid of the thought 'I

have not realised'.

 

Stillness or peace is realisation. There is no moment

when the Self is not. So long as there is doubt or the feeling

of non-realisation, the attempt should be made to rid oneself

of these thoughts. They are due to the identification of the

Self with the not-Self. When the not-Self disappears, the

Self alone remains. To make room, it is enough that objects

be removed. Room is not brought in from elsewhere.

May all be happy.

May all be without disease.

May all share in the well-being.

May none be in misery of any kind whatsoever.

May peace and peace and peace be everywhere.

 

- Invocation from the Upanishads
