I was pouring over the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna and am charmed to see it in a new light having been to Arunachala and having read Bhagawan's way.
The gospel too is replete with instances where Sri Ramakrishna has referred to the 'I' and the 'Thou'.
'I' here represents jiva and 'Thou' Paramatman.
Here is one such example of Sri Ramakrishna urging devotees to seek the 'I' to find the 'Thou'
Master: Try to find out what this 'I' is. Is this 'I' the bones, flesh or blood or intestine?
Seeking the 'I' you discover 'Thou'.
In other words nothing exists inside you but the power of God.
There is no 'I' but only 'He'.
Chapter 43, Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, Belur Math.
