Ananta emphasizes that the Self is the ever-present reality that cannot be lost or found. He urges seekers to stop identifying with the mind's interpretive commentary and recognize the 'I' that remains prior to all thoughts.

✦

The self that you are looking for never left; it cannot leave. How would the self leave the self?

You don't need a thought to know that you are. Your existence is prior to thought.

Don't pick up the next thought. Even if an angel from heaven tells you to, don't pick it up.
