James Swartz - Getting rid of the Doer

How should we respond appropriately to difficult situations in life?
Should we abandon those situations by drinking, smoking, entertainment and other distractions?
First of all, it is important to realize that we alone will not be able to resolve this issue.
Vedanta explains that the problem is: You take yourself as a DOER!
A DOER which becomes famous, successful and enlightened!
A DOER who has experienced all kinds of spiritual states, travelled the world,...
But that does not work!
Vedanta will get you away from the doer!
To see for yourself if you are the DOER or the KNOWER of the DOER?
Remember that you as the DOER will die! But you as the knower of the DOER are unborn!
