"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

Aum

In the aspirant, who has through the practice of devotion attained to purity and poise of mind as also to freedom from every form of worldly attachments, is generated the intuition of the Supreme Being as an absolute Reality. When the Supreme Soul is thus intuited within oneself, the knots of the heart that make one feel oneself as an ego (one with the body) are severed; the doubts of the mind are dispelled; and all the doubts of the past as also those in the offing are liquidated.

  - Srimad Bhagavatam

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
