Ananta advises seekers to abandon the goal of attaining self-realization, as the desire for attainment reinforces the ego. He suggests focusing instead on devotion and staying with the truth in the present moment.

✦

The idea that I want self-realization is the very idea that keeps me as myself.

Don't try to attain self-realization; just stay with the truth and love God deeply.

The getting mode promises the illusion of progress, but all we get is a glorified sense of me.
