"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

Drg-Drshya-Viveka - 1

"The eye is the seer and form (and color) the seen. That (eye) is the seen and the mind is (its) seer. The witness alone is the seer of thoughts in the mind and never the seen." - Verse 1

- From Drg-Drshya-Viveka by Adi Shankaracharya

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
