Advaita Japa


I AM THE ABSOLUTE, THE SOURCE, THE NO-THING FROM WHICH EVERYTHING ARISES--- EVERYTHING, INCLUDING THE PERSON I'VE BELIEVED I AM. NOW NO IDENTIFYING WITH ANYTHING AT ALL--- ONLY WITH THAT WHICH IS UTTERLY BEYOND WORDS, UTTERLY BEYOND BODY, MIND, SENSES AND CONSCIOUSNESS. I JUST SIT BACK, NOT EXPECTING ANYTHING--- AND THE BELOVED APPEARS.
