MIND : ITS MYSTERIES AND CONTROL : 19-8
Chapter 19 - Thought-Culture-8
8. Brahma Vichara
The first and foremost of all thoughts-the primeval thought-is 'it
It is only after the birth of this thought that any other thought can rise at all.
It is only after the first personal pronoun 'I' has arisen in the mind that the second personal pronoun 'You' and the third personal pronoun 'He', etc., can make their appearance.
If 'I' vanishes, 'You' and 'He' will disappear by themselves.
Eradicate this false little 'I' of an illusory nature through proper Brahma Vichara.
There is no other way.
Thinker is different from thought.
Remember this.
This gives the clue to the fact that you are the silent witness of the modifications that arise in the mind.
You are Kutastha Brahman.
You are Pratyagatman.
