The great, unborn Self is undecaying, immortal, undying, fearless, infinite.
The best way to find your self is to lose yourself in the service of others… All other pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy.
If you wish to be free, know you are the Self, the witness of all these, the heart of awareness. Set your body aside, sit in your own awareness. You will at once be happy, forever still, forever free.
Any caterpillar who tried to “know himself” would never become a butterfly.
You should discover your own reality and not thwart yourself. For you have the self as your only friend, or as your only enemy.
Fight with yourself, why fight with external foes? He, who overcomes self will obtain happiness.
That the birds of worry and care fly over your head, this you cannot change, but that they build nests in your hair, this you can prevent.
Bright but hidden, the Self dwells in the heart. Everything that moves, breathes, opens, and closes Lives in the Self. Self is the source of love and may be known through love but not through thought. Attain this goal!
