Ananta explains that the 'I' is a chameleon-like pointer that shifts from the person to pure awareness, emphasizing that true freedom is being the untouched witness regardless of changing states or emotions.

✦

The 'I' is like a chameleon, depending on what we believe ourselves to be.

Freedom means any state can come and go, but I am the untouched witness.

Your being is not in service to states like bliss; they are in service to your being.
