No Thoughts Will Help You Realize the Self
10th May, 1992
Satsang Recordings and Transcripts of the American Jnani and Advaita Master Robert Adams.
These original recordings were made and distributed by a number of Robert Adams’ students. There are no alterations to these original recordings which have been converted to MP3 format, though due to cassette tape restrictions some chanting and irrelevant chat did not get recorded.

“The way you should read these transcripts is preferably before you go to sleep at night. If you have time during the day, you should read them during the day also. Yet you should not read them as you read a book. You read a book, you finish, you go on to the next book. You should really stick to one transcript for at least a week, if not more.
You read it through, and then you begin all over again. You go from paragraph to paragraph. You do not read it fast or speed read it. You take each paragraph and you ponder on the paragraph. You put the transcript down and you cogitate, ponder the paragraph, assimilate it, digest it, make it a part of your being and then go to the next paragraph.
If you're doing this correctly, you will not have the time to read thousands of books. I'm not saying you shouldn't read other books, but if you really want to make headway fast, follow one direction. Go one way. You may find many contradictions when you read so many books, and you'll become confused and even disgusted...”
