Product Description

You have many voices inside you. Whenever you ask who you are, many answers will come. Some
answers will be your mother’s, some will be your father’s, some will be the teacher’s, and so on and
so forth. And it is impossible to decide which one is the right answer. How to decide? What is the
criterion? This is where man is lost… this is self-ignorance. But because you depend on others
you are afraid to go into aloneness, because the moment you start going into aloneness you start
becoming very afraid of losing yourself. You don’t have it in the first place, but whatever self you
have created out of others’ opinions will have to be left behind. Hence, it is very scary to go in. The
deeper you go, the less you know who you are.
So in fact you are moving towards self-knowledge, but before it happens you will have to drop all
ideas about the self. There will be a gap, there will be a kind of nothingness. You will become a
non-entity. You will be utterly lost, because all that you know is no more relevant, and that which is
relevant you don’t know yet. This is called ”the dark night of the soul” by the Christian mystics.
It has to be passed, and once you have passed it… there is the dawn. The sun rises and one comes
to know oneself for the first time. The first ray of the sun and all is fulfilled. The first songs of the
birds in the morning and all is attained
