Bhagawan Sri Ramana Maharshi-Self Enquiry.

Focussing attention on the source of the mind is self-enquiry.
When the mind strays you bring it back.
Self-enquiry is not a thought but paying attention to the source of it.
There is no ego apart from the idea of it.
Ego is only a thought,an aberration on pure self.
It arises from self and depends on the self for it's existence.
It is never apart from the self and in fact the self but forgetfu l of it's true nature.
It believes the lie of independent existence.
The purpose of Self-enquiry is to discover the lie and remain free from it by being the self.
The more you practice the Self-enquiry the more tenuous the lie becomes until finally it loses it's power to hold you.
Urge to seek Self arises from the self.
