ASHTAVAKRA GITA : THE SONG OF ASHTAVAKRA 

1.11 Your real nature is as the one perfect, free, and actionless consciousness, the all pervading witness unattached to anything, desireless and at peace. It is from illusion that you seem to be involved in samsara.

1.12 Meditate on yourself as motionless awareness, free from any dualism, giving up the mistaken idea that you are just a derivative consciousness, or anything external or internal.

1.13 You have long been trapped in the snare of identification with the body. Sever it with the knife of knowledge that I am awareness, and be happy, my son.

1.14 You are really unbound and actionless, self-illuminating and spotless already. The cause of your bondage is that you are still resorting to stilling the mind.

1.15 All of this is really filled by you and strung out in you, for what you consist of is pure awareness-so don't be small minded.
