Ribhu Gita - Conquest of thought

 

 "If we think for a moment
that there is such a thing as thought,
consciousness itself will appear as thought.
That itself will appear as the world,
and jivas, and as the Supreme.
There will be misery arising out of it.
Therefore, beloved,
conquer thought easily by the certitude
that there is no such thing as thought
and all is Consciousness,
and like this attain bliss."

"Conquest of thought alone is the great success.
Conquest of thought alone is the great achievement.
Conquest of thought alone is the great yoga.
Conquest of thought alone is the great knowledge.
Conquest of thought alone is the great purification.
Conquest of thought alone is the great liberation.
Conquest of thought alone is the removal of sorrow.
Conquest of thought alone is the greatest happiness.

But conquest of thought is, itself,
the renunciation of thought,
(and) the renunciation of thought
is Consciousness."
