"The very first step in understanding what this is all about is giving up the concept of an active, volitional 'I' as a separate entity and accepting the passive role of perceiving and functioning as a process." - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

The real eye


Sri Ramana Maharshi:

If the Self were with form, then the world and God would be so too. But if the Self be formless then how and by whom are forms to be seen? Is the spectacle ever otherwise than as the seeing eye is? The real eye is just the real Self; it is infinite Consciousness, formless and worldless.

सर्वभूताधिवासं यद्भूतेषु च वसत्यपि।
सर्वानुग्राहकत्वेन तद्स्म्यहं वासुदेवः॥

That in whom reside all beings and who resides in all beings,
who is the giver of grace to all, the Supreme Soul of the universe, the limitless being:
I AM THAT. -- Amritabindu Upanishad
