| Who seeks Self-Realization?  
                                            
                                            We say " I  
                                            am a man or woman, I  
                                            am a daughter, son, father, mother, 
                                            sister or brother, I  
                                            am from this or that country, I 
                                             am the doer of this 
                                            or that action, I  
                                            am good or bad, I  
                                            am happy or sad, I  
                                            am a seeker, I  
                                            am spiritual, I  
                                            am a lover of God."
 We speak of " my  home, my  family, my  friends, my  enemies, my  job, my  stuff, my  strengths, my  weaknesses, my  thoughts, my  emotions, my  problems, my  joy, my  karma, my  past, my  future, my  spiritual path, even of my  God."   
                                  What is this I  and my  who claims to be  and own  such things?  Are these things, claims, and identities who I really  am?  What are  all these things, these objects, this world?  What is the stuff  of which they are made? And from where  do all these many things arise ?  Who am I, really ? Who am I?   One who is not able to refrain from asking such nagging questions is a candidate to travel the path of Self-Realization, wherein all of these questions are resolved in the direct experience of the Absolute Reality.   The path of the Himalayan sages  is an ancient-most path of Self-Realization encompassing the oral Yoga Meditation system recorded by Patanjali, Advaita Vedanta, and purely internal Tantra.       |
