35.Right or wrong,
Joy and sorrow,
These are of the mind only. They are not yours.
It is not really you
Who acts or enjoys.
You are everywhere, Forever free.
-Ashtavakra Gita 1:6 From "The Heart of Awareness: A Translation
36.You are pure awareness.
The world is an illusion, Nothing more.
When you understand this fully, Desire falls away.
You find peace.
For indeed!
There is nothing.
-Ashtavakra Gita 15:17
37.Feeble with age,
Still he is filled with desire,
When without doubt he knows
That lust is the enemy of awareness. Indeed how strange!
-Ashtavakra Gita 3:7
38.The fool practices concentration And control of the mind.
But the master is like a man asleep. He rests in himself
And finds nothing more to do.
-Ashtavakra Gita 18:33 311
