An elixirous breath of fresh air
As suffused with love we impulsively pair
With one & all granting small boons
As for us ... we gaze at the moon
Transfixed by love

"You don't exist as you appear. You have no body. The body
appears to be real, but upon investigation you will find that it's not. When
you discover your reality, your real nature, the body is transcended. It no
longer is the same thing to you. It may appear real to others, but to you
it's no longer there. It is like the water in the mirage. It appears to be real,
but it's not. As far as your bodily functions are concerned, they will go on.
That's how it will appear to others. Your body will appear to go through
experiences, but not to you, when you are awakened. You will appear to
be the doer to others, but not to you."

"Do not pray for things. Spend your time identifying with your Self.
Praying for things is a waste of time. You may get the things, but you'll be
sorry afterwards."

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

"The good news is that you do not have to suffer in any way, shape, manner. You can become free if you want to. You can awaken to your true Self which is perfect harmony, peace and joy if you want to. You can become perfectly happy without any change in the happiness. To have total unalloyed happiness forever if you want to but you have to pay the price. The price is giving up your ego, killing the mind. Getting rid of the dogmas and concepts, preconceived ideas that you've had for years and years. How do you do this? By becoming calm, just by becoming calm. If you can truly become calm you will be able to overcome every handicap you've ever had. You will be able to find the peace which passeth all understanding. If you truly learn to be calm the whole world will be yours."

'Most of you have come here for one reason -to find freedom from your
everyday experiences; to be liberated,to be self-realized, to attain Nirvana,
Satori, to become enlightened? Yet, does the Sun have to be enlightened?
Your real nature is moksha, liberbation.
You have always been That and nothing else."
-Robert

The seeker is he who is in search of himself.
Give up all questions except one: ‘Who am I?’ After all, the only fact you
are sure of is that you are. The ‘I am’ is certain. The ‘I am this’ is not.
Struggle to find out what you are in reality.
To know what you are, you must first investigate and know what you are
not.
Discover all that you are not -- body, feelings thoughts, time, space, this or
that -- nothing, concrete or abstract, which you perceive can be you. The
very act of perceiving shows that you are not what you perceive.
The clearer you understand on the level of mind you can be described in
negative terms only, the quicker will you come to the end of your search
and realise that you are the limitless being.
Sri Nisargatta Maharaj

Yes indeed " I am this " won't cut the mustard but "I am that" seems to be ok !  I like the negation part of the quote. Your observation goes to show how dodgy the ground is really, with semantics. Having come back today from a poetry class, i realise the most i can ever do with words is point, you can point succinctly perhaps or beautifully but you're still pointing, thanks, some food for thought or some thought for food

"What I'm trying to tell you is you have absolutely nothing to worry
about. Nothing to be concerned about. Nothing to react to. Nothing to
try to change. Keep yourself still. You will find that your body will do
whatever it came here to do. It knows what to do. Your job is to
remember that you are not the body. You are not the mind that thinks,
thinks and thinks. You begin to observe your mind thinking. You begin to
become the witness to your thoughts. You become the witness to all of
your external affairs because you are remembering that all of your
external affairs are merely thoughts projected by your mind. When you
stop reacting the projection stops and you return to your bliss state. You
have to learn to leave the world alone."
