Q. If I search for the true Self, or Oneness, who does the true Self search for?
A. When you say that you search for true-Self, or Oneness, do you know who is searching for the true-Self? Do you know what true-Self is when you ask who the true Self searches for?
If you know either of these two; you or the true-Self, you will automatically find the answer to your question because you are oneness with the true-Self that you are searching for. If you see what you are when your body is not you, you can know this truth. It is because you can’t see yourself as you are that you make a discrimination between you and the true-Self. In fact, you are oneness not only with the true-Self but also with everything since there is nothing that doesn’t belong to the true-Self. So, if you can see only a single thing as it is, you can know the answer to your question.
Your searching for true-Self is as if a wind were searching for air.
The true-Self doesn’t search for anyone or anything because it is all as perfection and there is nothing else other than the true-Self. The reason why you are struggling to go after something is that you are oblivious to the fact that you are all as perfection and eternity itself, which is because you can’t see yourself as you are. Therefore, you will have nothing to search for when you realise the fact that you are the true-Self itself, by seeing yourself as you are.
