As soon as you create an imaginary being, a character, you are automatically confronted by the question: what is the self? How can it be grasped?  (The Self Quotes) Authentic spirituality is revolutionary. It does not legitimate the world, it breaks the world; it does not console the world, it shatters it.

The mind having vanished, the self shines forth. In the realised man, the mind may be active or inactive, the self remains for him  (The Self Quotes) Realization is our true nature. It is nothing new to be gained. What is new cannot be eternal. Therefore there is no need to be doubting whether we would gain or lose the self  (The Self Quotes) Turn the mind inward and cease thinking of yourself as the body; thereby you will come to know that the self is ever happy. Neither grief nor misery is experienced in this state  (The Self Quotes) As long as I continue to take myself seriously, how can I consider myself a saint? How can I consider myself a contemplative? For the self I bother about does not really exist, never will, never did except in my own imagination  (The Self Quotes) A warrior doesn’t know remorse for anything he has done, because to isolate one’s acts as being mean, or ugly, or evil is to place an unwarranted importance on the self  (The Self Quotes) The most natively interesting object to a man is his own personal self and its fortunes. We accordingly see that the moment a thing becomes connected with the fortunes of the self, it forthwith becomes an interesting thing  (The Self Quotes) The myth of hell represents all the meanness, all the revenge, all the selfishness, all the cruelty, all the hatred, all the infamy of which the heart of man is capable  (The Self Quotes) The rights of the people to the exercise and fruits of their own industry can never be protected against the selfishness of rulers not subject to their control at short periods  (The Self Quotes) I honor those who try to rid themselves of any lying, who empty the self and have only clear being there  (The Self Quotes) This is the greatest stumbling block in our spiritual discipline, which, in actuality, consists not in getting rid of the self but in realizing the fact that there is no such existence from the first  (The Self Quotes) When our identity comes from the self, then we keep our energy to ourselves. We feel energetic, we feel powerful, and we experience youthful vigor  (The Self Quotes) Competition is like experimentation in science, a discovery process, and it must rely on the self interest of producers, it must allow them to use their knowledge for their purposes, because nobody else possesses the information  (The Self Quotes) The best of modern therapy is much like a process of shared meditation, where therapist and client sit together, learning to pay close attention to those aspects and dimensions of the self that the client may be unable to touch on his or her own  (The Self Quotes) If the desert is holy, it is because it is a forgotten place that allows us to remember the sacred. Perhaps that is why every pilgrimage to the desert is a pilgrimage to the self. There is no place to hide and so we are found  (The Self Quotes) The self of which you speak, whether it is the great self or the small self, is only a concept that does not correspond to any reality  (The Self Quotes) If the selflessness of phenomena is analyzed and if this analysis is cultivated, it causes the effect of attaining nirvana. through no other cause does one come to peace  (The Self Quotes) Without its daydreams, the self is apt to shrink down to the size and shape of the estimation of others  (The Self Quotes) The self is not only the centre but also the whole circumference which embraces both conscious and unconscious; it is the centre of this totality, just as the ego is the centre of consciousness  (The Self Quotes) The young are often accused of exaggerating their troubles; they do so, very often, in the hope of making some impression upon the inertia and the immovability of the selfish old  (The Self Quotes)
