My Firm Conviction<br />
The Self or pure consciousness is experienced clearly with<strong>in</strong><br />
by all animals, human be<strong>in</strong>gs and the gods alike as the „I‟. It is<br />
by the reflection of this pure consciousness that the m<strong>in</strong>d,<br />
sense organs and the body which are <strong>in</strong>sentient, appear to be<br />
sentient. External objects are perceived only because of this.<br />
This Self is, however, concealed by this very m<strong>in</strong>d, senses and<br />
body which are illum<strong>in</strong>ated by it, just as the Sun is concealed<br />
by the clouds. A person of perfect realization and wisdom due<br />
to his complete and clear understand<strong>in</strong>g ever meditates <strong>in</strong> his<br />
m<strong>in</strong>d on this supreme consciousness. Such a person is the<br />
real preceptor. This is my perfect conviction.
