Even This You Are Aware of As Your Own Dynamic Aspect - 20th February 2018
Saar (Essence)
Ananta points to the effortless, ever-present reality of Being that exists prior to all mental constructs, urging the seeker to recognize the awareness that remains even when the mind attempts to complicate the simplicity of existence.
You cannot turn your existence off; it is the substratum of the waking state.
Do not try to make it simple for the mind; just see that you are.
You are the clay which makes all various shapes, yet you are not a thing.

It's cruel, Father. It's so clear that there is only this awareness. Mind is shouting out loud: 'It can't be this simple.' Yes, this feels stronger than to say awareness. Somehow I can't grasp this 'I am, I exist, have a life.' Probably mind tries to... it's clear, if not crystal clear, that I am because it is.
Don't be right now. Say that. Who's that? This isn't true that some people... don't try to make it simple for the mind. I won't try to get the mind to accept it, you see. I say: don't be right now. Don't be this for one moment. Don't exist.
I'm still here.
By this, it cannot... whoa. It is not coming and going. You cannot turn it on and off like this. This Being, the same system, is what you... this is the 'I Am' of the waking state, for very existence. And ultimately, you are beyond even this. Even this you are aware of as your own dynamic aspect. That which is effortless, silent, wasn't witness... even this is far beyond all mental constructs. That which is not a thing and yet is all things, which all things are made up of, just emerge from, just and go back to, just... You look at that clay which is making all these various pots of various shapes and sizes, but it itself is not a thing.
