Ananta invites seekers to drop all conceptual meanings and labels, revealing that suffering arises from the pretense of individuality. He emphasizes that truth remains ever-present only when we abandon the need to mentally understand our existence.

✦

Nothing is originally a thing; we give conceptual meaning to appearances and then call it the truth.

Every time we pick up a notion about something, we are making a limited idea about ourselves.

Leave this existence as unlabeled. It is completely possible to lead a life mostly like this.
