"There is nothing to do. Just be. Do nothing. Be. No climbing mountains and sitting in caves. I do not even say, 'be yourself,' since you do not know yourself. Just be. Having seen that you are neither the 'outer' world of perceivables, nor the 'inner' world of thinkables, that you are neither body no mind---just be."
"Q. Surely there are degrees of realization.
M. There are no steps to self realization. There is nothing gradual about it. It happens suddenly and is irreversible. You rotate into a new dimension, seen from which the previous ones are mere abstractions. Just like on the sunrise you see things as they are, so on self realization you see everything as it is. The world of illusions is left behind."
