Ananta guides seekers to recognize the one unchanging constant of Being that remains ever-present amidst the flux of the body, thoughts, and world, emphasizing that our true nature neither comes nor goes.

Even with the body, I am one. I neither come nor go; I am everywhere at once.
In this ever-changing world, what is the one constant? This is the one reality before the world appearance.
You cannot carry the anxiety of the mind on your back as a burden. Let it go.

Ananta

And one is doing these beyond adoration. Even with the body, and one, I neither come nor go; I am everywhere at once. So what are we talking about here? It can seem like the body has been made the villain in much of spirituality. Look in all the various institutions throughout the world; many times, it is just this: 'What do you do with the body?' which is the problem. Now the recognition is that even with the body, even with this one more separation, really, only the apparent separation has happened. It looks like that. But can a little appearance of the body lead to any separation? It is only the identification, the attachment, which means insisting that there it is, a separate entity.

Ananta

Let's try to say: 'Self, even with the body, I am one. I neither come nor go, and I am everywhere at once.' All these are clues. All these are pointers. Oh, the grocery! Maybe for last night, we woke up at 1:00 a.m. because of everything. I thought also, 'What is actually happening?' It is a given. Second by second, we can figure out. We went to the GPS, we checked all our devices, we rolled up on it. We took steps. We just can't find it. You can't find the form, which is so funny. And we would have loved looking for this. Then we stayed in like... we went to the room, we stepped back to the bedroom, we did that. Like, on time, this then is a pivot. We let's say threw the attention there. The context is: where is this sound coming from? The changes in it utterly seem to be coming from like it was loudest when you were at the doorway. We couldn't tell whether it is some outside tutorial or title. They just stood at the doorway and the sound is all this. Let me tell you what's going on with this. Like this, it follows the sound with the contemplation, ready?

Ananta

Then we also discovered that it is happening exactly every 15 seconds. Every 15 seconds, it would come. When we set a timer, my daughter here, it is a very customary function at a time. Next will be at something or the other second. So particularly, we can very easily tune into the sound, just ready for it. Yes. And then we found that in our cupboard, the rule's false case, and that small case, some button was being pressed by some tool, and it was beeping as a reaction to that. And it was setting like an alarm every 15 seconds. What happened with that? Just beginning there, it could be pointed to: where is the sound taking us? You just have to let go of everything else, just follow that. From this, this might be from the favorite speaking. We have to just follow what it says.

Ananta

So that moment he says, 'I neither come nor go, I am everywhere at once.' So what's a Nissan would need to think? 'I neither come nor go.' Notice when we find that equation doesn't come or go. This is the one constant that we are. This you can do like an investigation. The world appearance for the body, absolutely changing, also comes and goes. Thoughts, they can improve. Emotions also come and go. All experience. What is? Yes, I exist now. One thing we can say about it: as long as there is a world, there is a universe, this is the constant. Everything in the universe or the world appearance also comes and goes. But as long as the world appearance is there, this is the one point before you. Please be the one reality. Follows our waking state, a concern because this consequence... the third part is the duty of the vacancy's variables. And so much sits there for one constant where everything else is going to be moving and changing. This field is with one constant.

Ananta

And this actually, it's much even of spirituality. It's come to this: 'I am that I am.' I am this one function which doesn't come and go. Let me let's check this. Can the location with all location be contained within it? Many times I find that I give the answer and it takes away from your own contemplation. Does it have a location in space? If it had a form, it would have a location in planning relations. All the theories are very good. You cannot stop me from being with effortless and this being with the one constant. This ever-changing world, all because everything now you have to... this will continue. There is no need to go to experience to come to this consciousness, to come to this which is beautiful. To avoid any time this is to follow good. It's likely for my sake where the pointing in the changing realm, what it is that is unchanging?

All the clues are also believed as you cannot carry the identity of the meal on your back as a label to look good. You constantly familiar not with my mom, okay? Call it functionally. Get intercepted by... it's a breathing campaign. We think, 'I did this.' One has to be like this. Why wait? Constitute okay. You're in a hurry. Just let that journey be. Whether it comes or it goes, but don't let it over-thank you. You see, what is it that is unchanging? Everything else will come and go. They said, 'Oh here, I cannot behave more.' Ever died? The thought of all the universe to perish. The last graders are: can we go? The goddess they, the bliss be. And I broke up, wake up, and go back into reality of what I am. What if it's a high media you?
