"Realization is but the opposite of ignorance. To take the
 world as real and one’s self as unreal is ignorance,
 the cause of sorrow. To know the self as the only reality
 and all else as temporal and transient is freedom, peace
 and joy. It is all very simple. Instead of seeing things
 as imagined, learn to see them as they are. It is like
 cleansing a mirror. The same mirror that shows you the
 world as it is, will also show you your own face. The
 thought 'I am' is the polishing cloth. Use it."
