Ajnaana (ignorance) can be removed by acknowledging the universality of God and the merging of your individuality in the Universal. First practise the attitude of "Nenu Neevadu" ("I am yours") .  Let the wave in your heart discover and acknowledge that it belongs to the sea. This first step is not as easy as it seems. The wave takes a long time to recognize that it is the vast sea beneath which gives its existence. Its ego is so powerful that it will not permit it to be so humble, as to bend before the sea. But hold on to this thought like the kitten clings to its mother, moving plaintively for succor and sustenance, and all trace of ego will be removed. This step finally leads one to realize that there is no duality, all is one!

"I ask that you sincerely and continuously practise what I teach.  
That alone is enough.  I will fill you with joy immeasurable." - Baba
