To have 'Known' means that dehadhyas (the belief that 'I am the body') goes away. But in this case, dehadhyas has not gone and one has the intoxication of 'I know'; so what will become of him?

Once dehadhyas (the belief that 'I am the body') is gone, the naturalness of the body increases a fraction at a time. And to whatever extent it becomes natural, that much samadhi (freedom from the effects of mental, physical, and externally-induced problems) will arise!

How can one let go of dehadhyas (the belief that, 'I am the body') whilst residing in dehadhyas? For that, go to a Gnani (a Self-realized being), the One who has become a tarantaaranhar (One who has become liberated and can liberate others). The dehadhyas cannot go away through dehadhyas.

Where there is dhyan (meditation; internal state of being), there is no egoism and where there is egoism, there is no dhyan.

Purusharth (spiritual effort to progress as the Self) is such that it can only happen after attaining Purush (the Self). In fact, the prakruti (non-Self complex) is making you dance forcibly and on top of that you say, "I am doing this." That is known as bhranti no purusharth (illusory effort). That cannot be real spiritual effort to progress as the Self. It is only after the Self and the non-Self complex become separate that real spiritual effort to progress as the Self can happen.

When does Purusharth (real spiritual effort to progress as the Self) arise? It begins after the Gnani Purush (enlightened One) makes you a Purush (the Self). Until then the efforts that are going on are subject to the prakruti (non-Self complex), one dances according to the tunes of the prakruti, and yet we have to accept it. That is bhrant purusharth (illusory effort).

To not do egoism in that which is mandatory is known as Purusharth (real spiritual effort to progress as the Self).

If you take interest in anything that you experience in worldly life, then there will be bondage, whereas if there is no interest at the time of experiencing it, then there will be no bondage. In fact, that is real Purusharth (spiritual effort to progress as the Self).

Real Purusharth (spiritual effort to progress as the Self) actually happens when one becomes impartial towards his own self.
