“You are Brahman, nothing but Brahman. Brahman is consciousness, pure awareness. Consequently does Brahman have to become something or think about something or do something or worry about something? Your life is Brahman’s life.

And when you let go and stop worrying about something, stop thinking about something, then Brahman starts to express itself, as harmony, as bliss, as peace and you will find yourself in your right place going through those experiences and those situations that you have to go through, and all is well. You have absolutely nothing to do with it. It’s none of your business what happens to you.

If you can only do this and try it and practice it, you will see what I am talking about is real and true. Give it a chance, practice it for one day only and watch what happens. Instead of watching television, reading a newspaper, being concerned about the world and man’s inhumanity to man, for one day practice self-inquiry or just being still and watch what happens to you.

Watch the direction that you take. You will be moved by the unmovable. You will be carried along by the stream of blessedness to your highest good, by the current that knows the way. What I’m trying to say is that everything will take care of itself. Everything will always take care of itself. And Brahman is the Self!”

~ Robert Adams (20th century American Advaita mystic)
