'Getting It' Is Not Dependent on Time: You Are It - 11th February 2016
Saar (Essence)
Ananta points out that the mind's obsession with time and becoming prevents the recognition of our true nature. He invites us to witness the sense of time from the timeless presence that we already are.
The sense of becoming something is just a habit from the mind; the mind only wants next.
The witnessing of time is not moving in time; it is not changing with time.
The mind asks when you will finally get it, but you are already it.

The sense of getting somewhere, the sense of going somewhere, the sense of becoming something is just a habit from the mind. Only the mind wants next. And between this earlier and next, between this of earlier and next, this mind moves. But the present, it cannot do anything with. What is now, it has nothing to say about that. What's wrong with right now? Who am I right now?
If there was no time—not that we are in a rush, so there is no time—what if there was just no time? It did not exist. No movement happened in time. And then when the sense of time comes back, is that which witnesses it, the witnessing of time, is that also moving in time? Is that also changing with time? This sense of 'Have I got there?' or 'Have I not got there?' is subject to time, is it? And the mind is completely concerned about this question: 'When will I finally get it?' But it is not dependent on time. You are it.
