Witness

No personal, individual effort can possibly lead to enlightenment.
On the contrary, what is necessary is to rest helpless in beingness, knowing that we are nothing---to be in the nothingness of the no-mind state in which all conceptualizing has
subsided into passive witnessing.
In this state whatever happens will be not our
doing but the pure universal functioning to which we have relinquished all control.

*************

It is nothing but the personalization of the impersonal Consciousness as individual
identity, that constitutes the infamous 'ignorance' from which liberation is sought.
And liberation, or true knowledge, is the realization that this identity is merely an
illusion, a temporary aberration, like the shadow of a passing cloud.
