The Perfect Trap: Auspicious Love  (Paperback, Karl Renz)

“And I tell you, you are That what is, in spite of it. You were, you are, and you will be what is, in spite of any experiencer, experiencing, ever. You were never dependent on any experience. You are absolutely independent. You were, you are, and you will be That what is, Absolute, independent of any experiencer. And you can only BE That… you cannot BECOME That. You cannot attain That as you never left That. “But by now trying to attain That, you confirm that there’s one who needs to attain That. It’s a perfect trap. The more you try and succeed in something, the more you confirm that there’s one who needs it. You always confirm the needy phantom in front of you... “So any advantage you have in your so-called way is a disadvantage because you confirm someone who needs an advantage. It’s crazy! Even getting enlightenment is a disadvantage because you’re still one who needs to be enlightened. What an idea! Even waking up is a disadvantage because there’s still ‘one’ who needs to be awake. Crazy! It’s such a perfect trap. And there’s no way out.”
