These are words from Robert Adams ~

 

Only One Self ~

There is only one Self.

What you feel toward somebody else, you are feeling toward yourself.

What you do to anybody else you are doing to yourself.

If you help somebody else, you are helping yourself,

and if you hurt somebody else, you are hurting yourself.

 

What your body does is karmic.

It has nothing to do with you.

When you realise, "I am not the body, I am not the mind, and I am not

the doer," then you are safe.

But as long as you think you are doing something kind for some-body,

then you want a reward, you want recognition.

But when you know there is only one Self, you are automatically kind

to everybody. Virtue is its own reward.

 

Q. So Self-realisation is the erasing of 'me' as a separate entity?

R. Yes, exactly. It's also the erasing of the idea,

"I'm self-realised." There is only Silence. It's beyond explanation.

It's a mystery. The finite can never comprehend the infinite. There

are no words to explain it.

 

All is well. Consciousness is bliss, love — not as we know it, but a

million times stronger. And that's our real nature. Be your Self.
