Daily Quote, Monday March 9, 2009

Hi everyone,

Sorry about the delay again this morning. The quote arrived on time but my internet service was offline.

Here is the quote:

The self is always limited.

The self must cease through awareness of its own limitation, the falseness of its own existence. However deep, wide, and extensive it may become, the self is always limited, and until it is abandoned, the mind can never be free. The mere perception of that fact is the ending of the self, and only then is it possible for that which is the real to come into being.

Collected Works, Vol. VIII - 312

I would like to add this quote which follows from the one I posted yesterday:

"There is no need for the self at any time. There is nothing but the body and freedom of the mind can happen only when thought is not breeding the me."

Beginnings of Learning, p257.
