Q: How can I tell if I am making progress with my enquiry?
A: The degree of the absence of thoughts is the measure of your
progress towards Self-realization. But Self-realization itself does not
admit of progress, it is ever the same. The Self remains always in
realization. The obstacles are thoughts. Progress is measured by the
degree of removal of the obstacles to understanding that the Self is
always realized. So thoughts must be checked by seeking to whom
they arise. So you go to their source, where they do not arise.
