It is only when the investigating mind becomes a matter of investigation that the Truth is revealed. World arises by your being conscious of it. You and the world is a singular process. Mind posits as if there is something 'other than' this process, something 'apart' from this process, simply to seek relief from what it does not like in this process. Object-the world is seen by the subject-the observer, mind. Now there is no observer of the observer. There is nothing behind the observation. 'Why there is no observer' or 'there may be an observer' are all expressions, thoughts arising in the mind. When this is clearly noticed, subject-object is seen as a singular, complete, self-sustained process. Eyes see because the vision is ended at a point. Even in the sky, where we have nothing to see as end. An end as blueness is created as sky to see. If there is no enclosing factor, what the eyes will see? Nothing.

You have to stop all explanations that arise to close the gap, to explain away the gap between what you want and what happens (liked or disliked). It is not that you have to learn something to see the Truth. You have to be ‘as you are’ (without any explanation) to see the Truth. It is to find ‘you’ as you are-desiring, wanting, anxious, continuously adjusting with others or environment, being insulted or praised, being hit by unexplainable failures or successes, stuck up in the maze of choices, actions and consequences and so on. This ‘as you are’ is the end of ‘you’. This facing oneself ‘as it is’ is like an explosion. The new mind is born. You are thinking as if some one else has comfortably solved the enigma of life, hoping as if dependence upon others will take you to the Truth.
