You cannot exist without dissolving. You dissolve everyday in your sleep. If you don't dissolve into your nature, the infinity, the next day you become unfit to do anything.

अष्टावक्र उवाच

न ते सङ्गोऽस्ति केनापि किं शुद्धस्त्यक्तुमिच्छसि ।

संघातविलयं कुर्वन्नेवमेव लयं व्रज ॥

उदेति भवतो विश्वं वारिधेरिव बुद्बुदः ।

इति ज्ञात्वैकमात्मानमेवमेव लयं व्रज ॥

प्रत्यक्षमप्यवस्तुत्वाद्विश्वं नास्त्यमले त्वयि ।

रज्जुसर्प इव व्यक्तमेवमेव लयं व्रज ॥

समदुःखसुखः पूर्ण आशानैराश्ययोः समः ।

समजीवितमृत्युः सन्नेवमेव लयं व्रज ॥

He says, "Dissolve". You cannot exist without dissolving. You dissolve everyday in your sleep. If you don't dissolve into your nature, the infinity, the next day you become unfit to do anything. You dissolve anyway.

Consciously dissolve, even while being in activity. What is happening when you listen to music? You become the music. The listener, the music, everything has become one. What happens when you are dancing? You are dissolving in the dance. Have you observed? You are just dancing, fully engrossed in it. Dissolving is devotion. How can I be more devoted? Don't worry about it, you are already devoted. Devotion is your very nature. Now you just have to think how you are not devoted and what is stopping you from being devoted? A little hankering here or there? A little feeling that you'll get joy from this or that? Your ambition for doing this or getting that? Planning... just look at all planning and look at yourself. You have planned like this several times before, haven't you? Laugh at it, you have already dissolved! 

A sense of doer-ship comes to you as a big weight or cloud. Any time you feel a big weight or cloud (something unpleasant), know you have come into the sense of doer-ship. Just sit back and relax. You will see it vanishes. Just this awareness! Your heaviness is not associated with anything else, other than a sense of doer-ship. This very knowledge, 'I am not the doer', lets you relax. Let it be. Whatever is, let it be. लयं व्रज । That's what he says. Dissolve, dissolve...Ashtavakra says this five times. It's through the five senses that the mind gets into a state of non-dissolving. When your mind retreats from all the five senses and goes inside, what happens? You are completely in लय (means rhythm and dissolving). This is what happens in sleep. Where are you in sleep? You are dissolved!
