"I want to escape."
Let this ‘I’ who wants to escape, escape and you stay! Why tie yourself to this serpent who has been whispering inside your head for all these years? Identify this one that says, ‘I want to escape’. Is it you? I want to stay. That voice also is not yours, for so long as it is felt as yours you will feel you have to leave. It is just another ‘I want’ coin to be tossed aside. Leave these judgements alone, and identify, ‘This voice is not my voice. Something inside me wants to go, but I am staying.’ As what are you staying? And is there any effort in this remaining? A person cannot remain, only what remains, remains. And you are That. Give up the idea of a journey to Truth and Truth is instantly revealed. Give up this idea that you are near. This concept will take you to another birth, another opportunity. It is itself avoidance. And this silly, ‘I still don’t get it’, don’t pay any attention to this serpent’s voice. Keep quiet; let’s see if you are fit just to remain quiet. Your malignant relationship with mind as master is over. The mind can be used for normal service but can never help you to be who you are. No heady philosophy is required to know your Self, just this mirroring. Do you have the courage to look into this, your own mirror? There was a time when you were not ready to see. Now, something brings you here; take a look. Take a look or leave.
