who i am

 When you have time and you're not concentrating on your work, 

ask yourself again 

“Who works? 

I do. 

Who am I?" 

You do this all day long. 

When you go home, 

you're eating supper, you ask yourself 

“Who eats supper? 

I do? 

Who am I?" 

As you’re going to sleep, you ask yourself “Who’s going to sleep? 

I am? 

Who am I?" 

By the way, if you've got insomnia this is the best thing you can ever do for yourself. It’ll make you fall asleep right away. 

As you practice this way, something very interesting is going to transpire. As the days pass, as the weeks pass, you 

will notice that you're asking the question less and less. 

You're saying “Who am I?" and now five minutes pass, ten minutes pass, and there are no thoughts. 

In the effortless no-thought stage there is total happiness. 

You find you're just happy for no reason at all. 

You can be going through the worst calamity physically, but yet you have a happiness you've never felt before. And your work is being done more efficiently. You're no longer reacting to  person, place or thing. 

You just feel good. 

How long does it take before you become awakened and liberated? 

This is determined by the effort you put into it. 

If you inquire only in the morning, you've got a long way to go. 

If you inquire all day long, you can never tell what's  going to happen, but I can assure you that your life will change drastically. 

It has to. You know why? 

Because you  have no time to think of your problems. You have no time to think of the world. 

When your mind is not thinking of 

your problems or the world, it becomes weaker and weaker, and your problems become less and less important. You 

become a blissful, beautiful person. 

You have to do it. 

I can lead you to the goldmine, but you have to do the digging. I can share these things with you, 

but unless you do it yourself, you will never know that your real state of mind is consciousness. 

Your mind is really consciousness. 

You are pure awareness, absolute reality. You are sat-chit-ananda. 

You were never born, you can never die. You will live for ever, just as you are now, as the self. 

Prove this to yourself. 

Find out for yourself. 

Do not believe what I say. 

Do the practice and see what happens.
