 \textbf{27. I am without any attribute or activity, I am eternal, ever free
 and imperishable. I am not, etc.}
 
+\begin{oframed}
+
+    We assign attributes to objects in the world, but pure consciousness
+    doesn't have any attributes. The Real you has no attributes or properties -
+    it's only the body that has attributes. So when you say, `I am skinny',
+    that isn't your attribute, it's your body's attributes.
+    \texthindi{निष्क्रियो}
+    means that Consciousness has no activity. We get to know things or
+    experience things when the light of Consciousness shines forth and
+    illumines our awareness and that consciousness has no activity - it's just
+    there. Swamiji often says this - \textbf{``We think of ourselves as human
+    beings trying to have a spiritual experience but the truth is, we are
+    spiritual beings having a human experience''}. Swamiji says that when
+    enlightenment happens we realise that we are free and that we always
+    will be free and also that we where always free - it's not that there
+    has to be some spiritual experience in order for us to be free. In that
+    sense we are always free
+    (\texthindi{नित्यमुक्तः})
+    \texthindi{अच्युतः}
+    - According to Swamiji it means unchanging. All change is in Maya and
+    Brahman is free from all such changes.
