THINK ON IT DAY AND NIGHT. FILL THE MIND [ WITH IT ] DAY AND NIGHT - I AM THE LORD OF THE UNIVERSE


[This truth] is first to be heard. Hear it first. Think on it day and night. Fill the mind [with it] day and night: "I am It. I am the Lord of the universe. Never was there any delusion.... " Meditate upon it with all the strength of the mind till you actually see these walls, houses, everything, melt away — [until] body, everything, vanishes. "I will stand alone. I am the One." Struggle on!
