204. “Self-Enquiry is not asking you to believe or to trust – it is putting a mirror in front of you and asking you to look. Enquiry is suited to many people in the West, because we are more mental. And it is very direct. So unsparing is its look that nothing can escape.”
205. “The game is not set. There are so many layers that it is being perceived on. As your own consciousness becomes more refined, the game changes.”

212. “Let the world call you lazy for not running about like a frightened ghost. Just be quiet inside yourself.

Others come, they don't look like they will go very far, but they are marathon runners; they're there with you all the time. You cannot determine this… Somehow in the flow of your own unique river, you will see that everything is as it should be.”
225. “Feelings, by themselves, do not create problems. It is rather the tendency to interpret and analyze them. When out of habit you believe those interpretations, it is there that the suffering begins.”

240. “You are the harmony within which all things move. They are just illusion.”
241. “The mind has a dilemma. It is afraid of change, deeper change, yet the mind is attracted to life, which is change. Don't be mixed up in all that business. You merely observe, casually, passively and keep your attention inside your heart.”
242. “I don't have to be anything at all. I don't even have to be myself, because there is no such thing as not being myself. I am inescapably myself.”
243. “All you need to do is recognize your true position as the witness. You only have to do this for some time, until the spell is broken. Even after the spell is broken these mental tendencies may arise, but without any power, just like you can see the moon in the daylight.”
