Being like a Swan on a Lake

A man asks about two contrasting philosophies. One states that we are Brahman and there is nothing to do, full stop, while Rupert’s teaching suggests that we are Brahman but there is something to do. Rupert says that what there is to do is to recognise that one is Brahman, the infinite being. This recognition leads to the realisation that there is nothing to do. However, one must do whatever is necessary to come to this understanding for oneself, rather than superimposing it as a belief. Otherwise, one would be like a swan on a lake, appearing to do nothing on the surface but doing an awful lot beneath the surface.
