Do not try to accumulate more knowledge. Rather, empty yourself out of the knowledge that you already have. It is knowledge that you have that’s keeping you back from your self-realization. It is all your beliefs, your preconceived ideas, your concepts. And every time you read a book, you add on more and more concepts.
You learn more words. You become a knower of words. Whereas, the truth is in reverse. You have to know less and less words. You have to do less and less reading, less and less debating, less and less arguing. It all has to go!
