________________ The Knower Whenever I accomplish, get good grades, receive degrees, acquire posts, positions, I feel good, happy, accomplished, proud of myself. I can do it... I did it. Sometimes I have failures. Things don't happen my way, no matter how hard I try, I feel lost, failed, frustrated, and blame circumstances, friends, or even God. Accomplishments or failures, my attention is on physical and Mental strengths, circumstances, degrees, family and friends. I never think about my free spirit, the Soul, which is always with me Soul is joy, bliss and is the "Knower," without any accomplishments or failures. I get so involved in feeling good, accomplished, failed, or Just in my present, that I never experience my soul. Soul is there with blissful feelings, is stable, indestructible. Just experience, and be happy, peaceful, the "Knower". Soul is the real "Knower," and knows without connecting with objects Like a lamp, is a light itself. It may brighten the objects we connect to. One can be the "Knower" and still perform required activities without any expectations or failures. Just full of joy, bliss, and peace. The happiness comes from within, not from acquired posts, positions, accomplishments. I, the "Knower," full of joy, bliss, and peace, will know whatever there is to know. 101
