“ Remember there are not two selves. There's not a higher self and a lower self. There's only the Self, and you are that, just the way you are right now, this moment. There's nothing you have to do to make it happen, to make it appear. You do not have to beseech it, or petition it, or pray to it, or desire it, or want it. You have to be! Just be! Be that which you always were. Be that now, this moment, pure unconditioned Self, the Brahman.”

“ become like a person who does not react to things. Do not judge things. Leave things alone and become totally free. Why not do this now?

Those of you who have trouble with what I'm talking about and need a technique to work with. There is a technique we can practice together, that will help tremendously. We'll do this now.

Close your eyes. As you inhale say to yourself, "Who am I?" Before you exhale say to yourself, "I am Brahman," and as you exhale say to yourself, "I am not the body." You're inhaling you say, "Who am I?" In between inhaling and exhaling you say, "I am Brahman," and exhale and you say, "I am not the body."

If you don't like to use the word Brahman, you can change it to whatever you like. You can say I am the Christ, I am Buddha. Say whatever you want. But understand what you're doing. You are declaring the truth about yourself. "Who am I?" as you inhale, "I am Brahman," before you exhale, "I am not the body," with exhalation. Let's practice this for a while.”

“Advaita means non-duality and there is only one power and there is no power in effect. There is only one. That one is you. It is not your body or your mind or your affairs or the world or the universe. It is one reality, one consciousness, one truth. That one is divine grace. The ultimate reality. The bliss consciousness, the love. It is all in oneness and you are that.”

“Stop using your mind. Use your heart. Stop judging, condemning, coming to your own conclusions. For you are doing this in your own mind. Everything is alright just the way it is. Everything is perfect just the way it is. And now you know why? Because there is only one! One power! So everything has to be perfect. The one has no competition. There is not God and the devil. There is only God.”

There is not God and the devil. There is only God.

When I first read this exactly said by Joel S. Goldsmith in "Practicing the Presence" many years ago...
it was such a revelation...What? There is only ONE - One.
What a thing to contemplate and 'get'.

“Learn to be still. When I say, "Learn to be still I'm not referring to meditate." Remember when you meditate there has to be a subject and an object. When I say, "To be still," just be still. Be still, do not think of anything special. Just be still, quiet. I'm not speaking of being still over here alone, in everyday life.”

“ What you are can never be God. What you are doesn't even exist, a mirage, an hallucination. Only Brahman exists. When I say Brahman exists as you, I'm not referring to your body. I am not referring to your affairs or your world or your universe. I mean that Brahman exists as I-am. See it's the other way around. You see it's not, "I am Brahman. It is Brahman, I-am." Which leaves no place for your body or your mind or your thoughts or anything else. You're free.”

“ I will not say most I will say just about everybody, for centuries who have become self-realized, never read a book. Take the Rishis of old. The Rishis didn't read books. They sat under the trees in the silence, in quietness and everything was revealed to them.

Sit in the silence. Be in a state of no thought.”

“ In the deep sleep state is the only state in which you find true happiness. So a Jnani or a Sage, is one who is consciously experiencing the dream state. Not a dream state, a deep sleep state. One who consciously experiences the deep sleep state. In other words there is nothing in the deep sleep state but the Self. And the Self becomes the Sage or the Jnani. And the way to get to that state is through experiencing the Self, as I-am.”
