Ananta emphasizes that self-inquiry should be a natural, effortless process of dropping conclusions rather than seeking conceptual answers. He suggests that true intuitive insight arises only when we abandon the need to know ourselves as a phenomenon.

The question 'Who am I?' is so potent that it doesn't need any other support.

If you are reaching a conclusion then drop it; you will not know who you are conceptually.

Allow the questions to do the work themselves without getting in the way.
