Saar (Essence)

Ananta points to the natural, concept-less state of being where all questions and positions vanish. He emphasizes that one's original reality is already present and requires no strategy, effort, or masks to attain.

In your concept-less existence right now, is there something you have to become?
I don't need a strategy to get anywhere because before I can decide to get somewhere, I am that.
Just being is no longer heavy when you let go of the idea of being a doer.

Ananta

If in your most natural place and I just say, 'But what are you now?' then all those questions, all those conditions, they vanished. How I know that they will vanish? Because they are not true; they are not your original state. So you don't have to take one position over another. You don't have to take one as the truth, one as the false. Just everything is gone. This is your motionless existence. But the minute you pick up the idea, 'Okay, but then Father, what should I do?' that is the position that you will pick up.

Ananta

But or that either we let it go, it is be, or you say, 'Who is here to do something?' Actually, both are the same. Both these apparent approaches are the same. They have the same effect of dropping the 'something.' So then just being is no longer different from the inquiry itself, because as you just be, it is clear who you are, which is the inquiry. The recognition is so apparent. And as your recognition of the pattern 'What are you?' you are just being.

Ananta

All these distinctions will fade away. That I don't need a strategy to get anywhere, I don't need a plan to get anywhere, because before I can even decide to get somewhere, I am that. This is just me without 'doing' the just be. I hope more and more this point becomes clear for all of you, because otherwise what I say is that if we have a goal, destination, a plan to get there, a path, 'What can I do?' see, then we're starting with the starting point itself becomes false, which is to pick up the mask of the limited one.

Ananta

What I'm showing you is that in your conceptless existence right now, you see, is there something you have to become? Is there some more right or wrong way? Can anything come and change your reality?
