Always watch, always be aware, always watch yourself, watch how you react, watch how you think, watch the kind of thoughts that come to you, while the music is playing, while you’re meditating. Be aware of all these things and the more aware you become the more you disappear. All these concepts start to disappear, just by you being aware of them. It’s like playing hide and seek. You’re trying to find the person who is hiding. So you’re trying to find the thoughts that are lurking deep deep in the subconscious and they come up themselves and you say, “I see you. I know that you’re there. You cannot fool me any longer. The fear is there, I see where you are.”, and you ask yourself, “Who fears? Where did you come from fear? Who is your mother? Who is your father? Who gave you birth? You have no birth? You don’t exist?” You keep talking to yourself like this, so that part of you no more exists and it dissipates of its own accord. That’s how you work on yourself.
