![“For how long does one dwell in the Self? Once the complete state as the Self arises, there is indeed no more dwelling (in the Self), is there! The Self (developing I) has indeed become the Self (absolute Self), so the state of dwelling [in the Self] has altogether come to an end!” quote by Dada Bhagwan](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/52b/dada-bhagwan-31_self_for-how-long-does-one-dwell-in-the-self_2278110.jpg)
