Ananta guides a student to recognize that being is effortlessly present, while the 'me' is merely a mental construct. He emphasizes that the world exists within awareness, not the other way around.

The being is not efforting; the body is efforting to stay awake but the being is present.

You don't exist as a phenomenal entity inside this world. It is this world that exists inside of you.

Spiritual progress is just this ability to laugh at life and at what we've considered ourselves to be.
