*Words of Wisdom* - Ramana Maharshi

Your thinking that you have to make an effort to get rid of this dream of the waking state and your making efforts to attain jnana [true knowledge] or real awakening are all parts of the dream. When you attain jnana you will see there was neither the dream during sleep, nor the waking state, but only yourself and your real state.
~ Sri Ramana Maharshi
