Ananta guides seekers to empty themselves of all conceptual attachments, revealing that the sense of struggle arises only from holding onto the false mask of individuality.

The seller of the mask doesn't have to give up being itself, just stop buying from its own creation.
It is a process of being emptied out, not replacing one notion with another.
You will be free from all this conceptual dust once you stop holding on so tightly.

Ananta

I often answer that. Don't be fooled when you hear that. I don't think so. I will leave you with nothing. All your conceptual attachments... it's like Being itself discovered itself with this conceptual audacity, and now someone's got attached. Frankly, I'm just shrugging it off, but it will feel like it's... it's looking at it. And I know that you are noticing it is dropping, but because they are attached, it can seem so strong.

Ananta

If you add emotion that, 'I went to Pondicherry and Baku and I freed you from that function,' and I told you, 'Because it's not Pondicherry, it was Goa,' you know, it sounds like a joke. No, because you're not attached to where I went. But when we develop you, that something that you will be clear—that has been false. It's the same way. It's a notion being empty, not even being replaced by another notion, just being emptied out. That is going. It can feel like, 'Oh, that is the job,' because we've been holding on tightly to it.

Ananta

So you will refrain from all this conceptual dust. You can bring your attachments for a while, it's okay. You can feel it up. The seller of the mask doesn't have to give up. The seller of the mask—the one that is selling the mask of your individuality—doesn't have to give up being itself. It just stops buying from its own creation. Even the mind is the creation of Being itself. I think it is playing that way. It is fine, but it is playing this way.

The Thread Continues
