Without Labels, Only I Am Remains - 9th June 2016

This labeling, although it can seem like such an innocent concept—'I am just giving it a name'—this labeling is actually the root of all separation. Because the truth of what we are is the unlabeled. We cannot put a label, although we try with words like awareness, or the Self, or the Absolute. But truly, none of these labels are sufficient to describe the reality of this 'I'. So if 'I' is the unlabeled one, and everything that appears is just a projection of this 'I', is an aspect of this 'I', then this also ultimately has no name. Therefore, it is the unnamed one playing as name and form, you see.

Therefore, Maya is called this world of name and form, which actually does not exist, has no tangible reality. And the direct recognition and experience of this is what Satsang is for. So as we let go of the labels' appearance, with that we let go of the attachments, the ideas of 'mine' and 'me'. The unburdening of all of these concepts is the end of conditioning, because there can be no conditioning without labels. There can be no conditioning without the idea of 'me' that only exists in the mind.

I am. And as this sense 'I am' is here, we have been seeing that I am that which is prior even to 'I am', which has no labels, has no shape. And all this labeling was part of this video game called Maya, just inside the Leela. And now it seems to be done with it. Therefore, the dropping of labels is really important. You can see like this: can you not carry your labels and drop your identity? No?
