OVERCOME SORROW

Long hast thou been bound by the noose of "I am the body." Feel now: "I am Satchidananda Atman," and, cutting the noose with this sword of wisdom, roam about happily.
There should not exist in the heart the least idea of separateness. The moment the concepts of "I." "mine" and '"you" arise in one, the nail of sorrow is hammered in him. Get established in the idea of "Soham" or "I am He". Through identification with the Atman you will be able to land safely on the other shore, the shore of immortality.
