EVEN SO, AM I

I am the boundless ocean. This way and that, the wind, blowing where it will, drives the ship of the world. But I am not shaken. I am the unbounded deep in whom the waves of all worlds naturally rise and fall. But I do not rise and fall. I am the infinite deep in whom all the worlds appear to rise. Beyond all form, forever still.

—— Ashtavakra Gita
