Self Enquiry with Honesty
Q&A with Sirshree
Report to yourself honestly - without any deceit.
Seeker: Enquiry of the body mind mechanism – and that too with honesty? Please explain this in detail.
Sirshree: In this kind of enquiry you start seeing the mind in its different facets, in its different states, in its different relationships. How the mind changes from moment to moment? How it puts on masks? etc.. No hiding the truth from yourself. Report to yourself honestly – without any deceit. You may not like to see your own (your mind’s) darker aspects, but transformation will not occur without doing so.
Seeker: Sirshree, What has observation or seeing got to do with transformation?
Sirshree: Lots. With correct observation – the wrong automatically ends. This is the beauty of awareness. You cannot get angry, or kill somebody, or do something wrong in awareness. You can only harm others unconsciously, when you lack awareness. We can be selfish only when we are not aware; when we are unable to feel the other person’s unhappiness. And in non-awareness, man cannot unravel the mysteries of life. Deceits, Greed, Ego, and Hatred are all the offspring of non-awareness. If one starts seeing oneself in every situation, then very soon he will be transformed. For the first time you will begin to understand the mind.
