To do what the Work teaches is one thing: to hear what it says is another. The second note in the Work-Octave of personal development is, we are told, to apply what the Work teaches to ourselves.

When we are told to remember ourselves and ask: "Which self?" what answer can we expect after a time almost with certainty? We can expect the answer: "The self that knows its own nothingness." Yes, this would be a full form of Self-Remembering. The result of work is gradually to make us see we cannot do.
