Ashtavakra Gita

You alone are the enjoyer, the doer, and the cause; but really, the self acts through nothing, being always free

Points out the paradox at the center of the Gita's teaching on agency — the self appears to author every action while actually never acting at all.

Chapter 9 pushes Janaka toward vairagya, dispassion, by dismantling the sense of personal doership that keeps a person emotionally invested in outcomes. Ashtavakra grants, provisionally, that from the ordinary point of view the individual seems to be enjoyer, doer, and cause of events — this is how the world is experienced day to day. But he immediately undercuts that view: the self, properly understood, is pure witnessing consciousness, and consciousness no more performs actions than a light performs the events it illuminates. The apparent doer, on this account, is a case of mistaken identity between the self and the body-mind through which action merely happens.
