( To know the source as source and appearance as appearance, and oneself as the source only is self-realisation.
Earnestness is a precondition to self-realisation.
Earnestness precondition is not perfection.
Virtues and powers come vs. realisation, not before.
You cannot ask a valid question about yourself, because you do not know whom you are asking about.
Know yourself as you are.
You know so many things about yourself, but the knower you do not know.
Before you can know anything directly, non-verbally, you must know the knower.
To know that you are neither in the body nor in the mind, though aware of both, is already self-knowledge.
You can only know your self by being yourself.
When you know what you are, you also are what you know. )
