The only true and full awareness is awareness of awareness.
Till awareness is awareness of itself, it knows no peace at all.
What if one knows the subtle secret of manifold inscrutable mysteries?
Until one knows the Awareness which reveals all other knowledge,
does one know the Truth?
Is it not because you are yourself awareness that you now perceive this universe?
If you observe awareness steadily,
this awareness itself as Guru (Teacher) will reveal the Truth.
None can confront and overcome the mind.
Ignore it, then, as something false, unreal.
Know the Self as the real ground and stand firm-rooted in it.
Then the mind’s movements will gradually subside.
~ from The Garland of Guru's Sayings by Sri Muruganar
