" To remain in the awakened awareness state in the midst of the Knower (Gnata) and the object to be known (gneya) is penance itself. For the Knower to not become the object to be known is itself invisible internal penance (adeetha tapa). "

― Dada Bhagwan , Autobiograpy Of Gnani Purush A. M. Patel (in Gujarati)
