"I am inherent in existence. I am the inciter, the potential that takes shape. I manifest myself. I occupy myself with activity and finally dissolve myself. I pre-made all creations with vitality, will and consciousness. Like ghee that keeps a lamp burning, I lubricate the senses of living beings with the sap of consciousness."

No one sees you except yourself, no one reaches you except yourself, and no one knows you except yourself. You know yourself through yourself, and you see yourself by means of yourself. No one but you sees you. Your veil is your oneness, for nothing veils you but yourself.
