Dialogue with Death #30: Overcoming obstacles

Chinmaya Mission - Gita, Upanishads and Ancient Knowledge

What are the obstacles to gaining this knowledge? Through our senses, we see only the outside world and not our true selves. Our mind continues to become more and more extroverted. Yet, one can overcome this obstacle and use his senses to guide his mind towards the Self. When we see something, think, who is the Seer? Who is the one doing the seeing, hearing, thinking? The mind can be used to enquire about the true nature of the Self, to look inwards instead of outwards.
