the Overself as Observer...
The student has to stand aside from the thought-forms,
which means that he must stand aside from the person and look at it as something external to himself.
If and when he succeeds in getting behind it,
he automatically adopts the standpoint of the Overself.
He must make the person an object and the Overself its observer.
Now this element of pure awareness is something constant and unbroken;
hence it is not ordinary consciousness,
which is a discontinuous thing made of totalized thoughts,
but transcendental consciousness.
