The Lord of All


©1999 Penguin Putnam Inc.
 
Dwelling in every heart,
the Self is the Lord of all,

the seer of all,

the source and goal of all.

The Self is not outer awareness,
It is not inner awareness,
Nor is it the suspension of awareness.
It is not knowing.
It is not unknowing.
Nor is it knowingness itself.
It cannot be seen nor grasped,
It cannot be contained.
It is beyond all expression
and beyond all thought
.
It is indefinable.

The only way to know it is to become it.

It is the final resting place of all activity,

silent and unchanging,

the Supreme Good,

One without a second.

It is the Supreme Self.
It, above all else, should be known.
