Saar (Essence)
Ananta asks 'Can you stop being now?' to expose what persists even after the person is seen through as mere concepts: the undeniable presence of being.
The presence of being is here, even after the person is seen as only made-up concepts.

What is this sense of being? So, if I were to say, "Can you stop being now?" If only the person was here, actually it is never here, but suppose the person was here and you see that there is no person, so you investigate and look: it's just made-up concepts, just concepts. So, there is no person. Therefore, all should vanish. Then, if there was no person and the person was all there is, then everything should just vanish, isn't it? But it doesn't vanish. Because something is here. The presence of being is here.
So that's why we say, "Can you stop being now?" Because if I were to say, "Can you find being?" then it seems a little more complex. Oh, is this it? Is that it? But the minute I say, "Can you stop being now?"
