These talks, loaded with scathing pointers, were delivered at a blistering pace at the foothills of Arunachala, the mountain that he loves to call as the 'Light of Shiva'. Karl delights his audience with his idiosyncratic English and his crazy wisdom... often more to confuse but never, as he claims, to enlighten them. As he speaks like an empty loudspeaker, the living words talk from the Self to the Self entirely bypassing the personality. There is no escape, however. You can go to the most distant part of the Universe and who do you find there? You!
This pointer from Advaita means, there's no second. 'Without a second,' asks Karl, 'How can the one who's not there realize the one who's not there? You experience the prison and the guard but where's the inmate? Who can ever catch you? You're uncatchable. In that sense, you are the Absolute doer, the Absolute doing, and the Absolute done. So, what needs to be done?'
