JAGADEESH KRISHNAN










If the thinker withholds his attention from rising thoughts
or challenges them before they have a chance to develop,
the thoughts will all die of starvation.
You challenge them by repeatedly asking yourself "Who am I?
Who is the person who is having these thoughts?"
If the challenge is to be effective you must make it before the rising thought has had a chance to develop into a stream of thoughts.
Mind is only a collection of thoughts and the thinker who thinks them.
The thinker is the 'I-thought',
the primal thought which rises from the Self before all others,
which identifies with all other thoughts and says, 'I am this body'.
When you have eradicated all thoughts except for the thinker himself
by ceaseless enquirer or by refusing to give them any attention,
the 'I-thought' sinks into the Heart and surrenders,
leaving behind it only an awareness of consciousness.
This surrender will only take place when the 'I-thought'
has ceased to identify with rising thoughts.
While there are still stray thoughts which attract or evade your attention, the 'I-thought' will always be directing its attention outwards
rather than inwards.
The purpose of self-inquiry is to make the 'I-thought' move inwards, towards the Self.
This will happen automatically as soon as you cease to be interested
in any of your rising thoughts.
