Essential Nature of Bondage Is Nothing Other Than Desire – Sage Ashtavakra
The essential nature of bondage is nothing other than
desire, and its elimination is known as liberation. It is simply by not being
attached to changing things that the everlasting joy of attainment is reached.
Oh, how wonderful! I am awareness itself! No Less.
If one thinks of oneself as free, one is free, and if one
thinks of oneself as bound, one is bound. Here this saying is true “Thinking
makes it so.”
One who has finally learned that it is in the nature of
objects to come and go without ceasing, rests in detachment and is no longer
subject to suffering.
Sage Ashtavakra
