Incidentally, practice of meditation affects deeply our character. The ultimate purpose is to reach the source of life and consciousness. The primary purpose of meditation is to become conscious of, and familiar with, our inner life. But of our inner world of thoughts and feelings we know very little. Maharaj: We know the outer world of sensations and actions. Question: All teachers advise to meditate. And then, whatever doubts you have, will be cleared by that very knowledge, and everything will be opened up in you. In that identity, you must stabilize yourself. And the indwelling knowledge that you are, without words, that itself you are. So you have to give up both these identities. Similarly, since you have seen your body, you think you are the body. The name which is imposed on you, or the name which you have heard about you-you have accepted that name as yourself. And also, the name which is given to you or to the body is not your correct identity. You must dwell only in that knowledge "I am"-not merely the words "I am." The design of your body does not signify your identification. Maharaj: For meditation you should sit with identification with the knowledge "I am" only and have confirmed to yourself that you are not the body.
