Q:  At some point I have this feeling that (inaudible).  The voice becomes so strong: “there’s no value in anything you’ve done”.  It’s because there’s no doer, or I know sometimes I just watch myself. I just feels like what I’m doing is just a waste of time. And that feeling gets very strong, and then comes back again…

Maharaj:  Until you get Conviction thoughts are appearing upon your Presence.  Various thoughts are appearing upon your Presence . Good thoughts, bad thoughts, depressive thoughts are there.  You are prior to that.  And therefore I inviting the attention of the Invisible Presence, concentrate.  You’re watching this, you’re witness all that’s happening inside.  I’m talking about the Invisible Witnesser within you.

Q:  Yes, I can feel that…

Maharaj:  That ‘I’ is supposed to be dissolved.  ‘I’ is supposed to be dissolved.  To say ‘I’ your Presence is required.  If there is no Presence, who will talk about the ‘I’?

Q:  Again, the identity with the body comes back…

Maharaj: It’s not coming and going.  Is the sky coming and going anywhere?  Because, see, it’s not your fault, I’m not blaming you, it happens.  It is because we are measuring ourself in body-form that this happens.  And for which your involvement is most important, meditation is required.  Why am I insisting on meditation?  Because it is basic, it is the foundation, it is the anti-virus software.  You have to implant that anti-virus software.  Through which you are always hammering yourself ‘you are Brahman, you are Brahman’.  You know the police station? To the criminal they say “You are a criminal, this is the evidence against you”, he says “no, I am not criminal” — “Yes, you are criminal!  You see this? You’ve done this. Liar, you are liar!” Like that, “You are Brahman, you are Brahman!”, you are hammering.  Then you’ll come “Yes, so that I”.
