I’m a vedantist monk in San Francisco. I have lived in the monastery for about a decade now. I am not really in search of anything more than the ability to see things as they are and to spend my time accordingly. That is most of what I can say about that question. This identity of “Self” is a large question and is a fun one to ponder. If you can accurately identify yourself, I trust you will know me as well.

If a drunkard takes too much liquor he cannot retain consciousness. If he takes only two or three glasses, he can go on with his work. As you advance nearer and nearer to God, He will reduce your activities little by little. Have no fear.
