The True Self...

"You are the Self.
The Self is eternally realized.
Otherwise, there will be no pleasure in it.
If it is not eternal,
it must have a beginning;
what begins will also end,
so it is only transient.
There is no use seeking for a temporary state of affairs.
The fact is, that it is the state of effort-less,
ever alert Peace.
Effortlessness while remaining aware is the state of Bliss;
and THAT is the state of REALIZATION.
