Just something to consider…. [Mark Bates]
Events happen, deeds are done, but there is no individual doer thereof.
~ Buddha
When one sees oneself as neither the doer nor the reaper of the consequences, then all mind waves come to an end.
~ Ashtavakra Gita
All your activities happen spontaneously and they will continue to happen.
Your claim of being the doer is totally false.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj
There is neither creation nor destruction. neither destiny nor free will. neither path nor achievement. This is the final truth.
~ Ramana Maharshi
How foolish it is to believe that you are doing the writing �when, in fact, you are merely the pen in the Writer’s Hand.
~ Wu Hsin
Self-Realization or Enlightenment is nothing more than the deepest possible understanding that there is no individual doer of any action – neither you nor anyone else. Also you are not the thinker of any thoughts, nor the experiencer of any experiences – they happen. When IT happens, no bright lights are likely to flash in your head!
~ Ramesh Balsekar
People, confused by ego, think they are doers of all kinds of work while it is being done by the energy of nature.
~ Bhagavad Gita
Nothing to do, Nothing to force, nothing to want – and everything happens by itself.
~ Lama Gendun Rinpoche
