THE DIRECTOR OF YOUR SENSES

Just as a house exists for the use of someone, so also the ears, eyes, hands and legs exist for the use of their director, who is entirely distinct from these senses.
That director is the real infinite "I," the inner ruler. He is the immortal and pure Consciousness. The capability of the ears to hear sounds and of the eyes to cognize objects is due to the intelligence of this director.

From "Daily Sayings" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
