How did you wake up in the morning? Why did you wake up at all? It is not the mind which knows - somebody knows because of the mind.
There is no need to turn round and round in endless questioning; find yourself and everything will fall into its proper place.
The trouble is, everybody wants to have the knowledge of the Self without giving up the identification with the body, they are contradictory. Give up this identification and everything becomes simple. I am there before anything can happen.
Forgetting your Self is the greatest injury; all the calamities flow from it. Take care of the most important, the lesser will take care of itself. You do not tidy up a dark room. You open the windows first. Letting in the light makes everything easy.
These attributes are given to God in consciousness, not to the Absolute. The Absolute is without attributes.
When consciousness realizes its potential power, its universality, the “me” and “mine” concept is lost. This universal consciousness is known as God, which is the Almighty, the Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent, all the attributes.
Once this consciousness is conscious of itself it takes on certain items as its own, because of conditioning, and others as not its own, and it will fight for and try to protect those which it considers its own.
