60.
You have to realize that you
are not the body or the
knowledge
‘I
am’. You as the Absolute are
neither, nor do you require
them.
When
the knowledge ‘I am’ arose,
you did not know what it
was, it was just a
feeling
‘you are’- absolutely
non-verbal.
You did not even know
whether it was real or
unreal, it was just there.
When
verbalization was thrust on
you, you made the first
mistake of believing the
‘I
am’ to be real.
The
second mistake, which was
hammered into you, was to
believe that you are a
person
born with a body and living
in this world.
That
you would die one day you
inferred by seeing people
around you die and these
beliefs
grew stronger on seeing
births and deaths occurring
around you almost everyday.
What
the Guru now tells you
challenges all this, he
tells you that you are
neither
the
body nor the knowledge ‘I
am’.
He
tells you that you are the
formless Absolute and you do
not require either of them,
rather
you were never them.
The
Guru can say so as that is
his realization and you have
to have faith in his words.
