The true Self is not the finite body, but the infinite, divine essence, which can be realized through meditation and letting go of identification with the body.

Do not identify with the finite body. The finite body is mortal. Identify with the infinite Brahman. Thus you will become immortal. You are in truth divine.

The text is a spiritual instruction that calls on the listener not to identify with the mortal, finite body. Instead, the listener is to connect their identity with the infinite, divine essence (Brahman/Atman). Human existence is described as transient and prone to failure, while the inner Self is portrayed as eternal and radiant. The text advises overcoming the darkness of ignorance and looking beyond death. This is achieved through inner stillness, meditation, and listening to the voice of the soul. The listener is encouraged to feel and realize the divine essence within. The ultimate goal is unity with the eternal Knocker and the attainment of the true purpose of life.

Full text in English
I am reading something from, because I saw the book, so I took it. Do not identify yourself with the finite body. The finite body is perishable. Identify yourself with the infinite Brahman. Thus you will become imperishable. You are divine in truth. Feel that. Feel and realize your divine nature. Cross over the darkness of ignorance and go beyond death. Recognize the sublime, radiant being. Recognize the source of all knowledge deep within you. In the silence of union, listen to the voice of the soul. Feel the radiance of wisdom from the deepest heart. God is in you. Firm up your resolve to realize God. Become one with the eternal Knocker within. Attain the goal of life. Be calm, be still, be silent. Go deep into meditation. Realize the Atman. The highest Self.

Ich lese etwas aus, weil mich über das Buch sah, da nahm. Identifiziere dich nicht mit dem endlichen Körper. Der endliche Körper ist staplig. Identifiziere dich mit dem unendlichen Brammern. So wirst du unstaplig. Du bist in Wahrheit göttlich. Spüre das. Fühle und verwirklele dein gottliches Wesen. Überquere die Dunkelheit der Unwissenheit und gehe über den Tod hinaus. Erkenne das erhaben, strahlende Wesen. Erkenne die Quelle allen Wissens tief in dir. In der Stille der Vereinigung lausche der Stimme der Seele. Fühle das Strahlen der Weisheit aus tiefstem Herzen. Gott ist in dir. Festige deinen Entschluss, Gott zu verwirklichen. Werdereins mit dem ewigen Klopfer innen an. Erreicher das Ziel des Lebens. Sei ruhig, sei still, schweiger. Gehe tief in die Meditation. Verwirkliche den Atman. Das höchste selbst.
