July 8

But, if through constant endeavor the seed of vasana is burnt by the fire of correct understanding and self-knowledge, then the burnt seed will not give rise to further bondage.

July 9

Then you will realize the truth, and that is the end of all doubts.

July 10

That which is everything in the universe, that which is devoid of everything in the universe, that which is inexpressible, that which is the supreme truth--by what name can it be called?

July 11

He who is thus equipped with the spirit of non-duality (as if he is in deep sleep, though awake) is not disturbed though actively engaged in life. Such a person is liberated here and now.

July 12

Desire for limitation interferes with the fullness of the self; absence of such desire promotes bondage! Hence, constant awareness is to be preferred. 

July 13

Realize: "All this is pervaded by me for I am omnipresent and devoid of body and such other limitations" and dwell in peace and supreme happiness.

July 14

The silence of deep sleep is conducive to liberation. In it the prana or life-force is neither restrained nor promoted, the senses are neither fed nor starved, the perception of diversity is neither expressed nor suppressed, the mind is neither mind nor non-mind. There is no division and hence no effort at abolishing it; it is called the silence of deep sleep and one who is established in it may not meditate. There is knowledge of what IS as it is and there is freedom from doubt. It is utter emptiness. It is supportless. It is of the nature of supreme peace of which it can neither be said that it is real nor that it is unreal. That state in which one knows "there is no I," nor another, no mind nor anything derived from the mind, in which one knows "I is but an idea in the universe, and it is really pure existence"--that is known as the silence of deep sleep.
