I found this today

Ask yourself   "Who am I"?

"Who is this being that dwells within this body?"

Ask yourself these questions slowly and think.

We do not need the knowldge and culture of a distinguished mind to understand and appreciate the teachings.  The simple and untutored and the primitive can as readily enter by an act of faith.

The great elemental secrets of life are so simple that few see them.  People are complicated, intellects are complicated, not life. 

 Paul Brunton asked "What is the way to God-realization?" and Maharshi said: "Vichara, asking yourself the 'Who am I?' Enquire into the nature of your Self."

(Not written by me.  These words helped me so I am sharing what I found in my treasures of paper I have saved for years.
