Neti -neti "Not this, not this," Negating all names and forms in order to arrive at the underlying truth.

We are all moving forward to the ultimate realization that we are so much more than our bodies and minds, indeed we are not that at all. I am always amazed at how this deep hunger for freedom results in an earnestness, when surrendered to, shows us the way home to our true Self.
" If a person has attained the firm knowledge that he is not an object of perception, but is THAT pure Consciousness which shines clearly in the states of waking, dream, and deep sleep, and which, as the witness of the whole universe, dwells in all bodies from that of the Creator Brahma to that of the ant, then he is my Guru, irrespective of whether he is an outcaste or a Brahmana. This is my conviction."
Adi Shankara
"When I see I am nothing that is wisdom. When I see I am everything that is love, and between those two my life moves." Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
