Transcript

Just closing the eyes.

Feel the breath as it moves through the body.

Already conscious.

Already the truth.

Already the destination,

The point of departure,

The journey,

All one and the same.

There is no distance between us and the truth.

Self has no distance.

We need to travel to get anything else,

But to get to ourselves there is no distance.

If at all we see distance,

Then we deny our own existence.

Already existing is nothing but the truth itself.

Only thing separating us is ignorance.

Is that a bad thing or is ignorance beautiful?

Because it covers the most beautiful thing in the universe,

The mystery that is oneself.

But the thing is one shouldn't remain a mystery.

One shouldn't stay a secret to oneself.

Already that.

Nothing needs to be done.

To be the truth is effortless.

Having been that our whole lives,

We just didn't know where to look,

What to look for and how to recognize what we are seeing.

Once it's pointed out,

Simpler than the simplest,

Easier than the easiest,

The simplicity itself,

Nothing needs doing,

Adding or taking away.

To be oneself is absolutely the simplest.

To be the purest,

We don't have to look for it.

The easiest of the easiest.

We don't have to relax,

We don't have to do anything.

Already the relaxation itself.

Aum.

Aum.

Aum.
