“As long as there is a ‘you’ doing or not doing, anything, thinking or not thinking,
‘meditating’ or not meditating’, ‘you’ are no nearer home than the day you were born.
However many years ‘you’ may have been at it, and whatever you have understood,
you have not yet started if there is a ‘you’ that is still in the saddle.
As long as ‘you’ do anything from a you, you are in ‘bondage’.
Here the word ‘you’ stands for any object that appears to act or not act,
that is any phenomenon as such.
‘You’ stands for any such object which believes that it acts volitionally
as an autonomous entity, and is thereby bound by identification with a phenomenon.”
