When you're desireless you are happy because you are never disappointed, you are never nervous. So to be desireless doesn't mean that you become something absurd or ascetic or anything like that, but not to expect something.

More quotes by Nirmala Srivastava
Spirit is like a mirror where you see yourself clearly and you start changing yourself.
Nirmala Srivastava
Freedom is when you really get your own powers which are within you. In your central nervous system and in your conscious mind, you must feel the existence of the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
You don't have to have blind faith for anything. Blind faith leads to fanaticism. You shouldn't have blind faith at all. You have to experience, and after experiencing if you do not have faith, that means you are not honest.
Nirmala Srivastava
You must forgive everyone. Now many would say that We cannot forgive, it's very difficult. But it's a myth whether you forgive or don't forgive. What do you do? You don't do anything. But when you don't forgive, then you are playing into wrong hands. That means you are torturing yourself, while those who have troubled you are quite happy.
Nirmala Srivastava
Sahaja Yoga is like a tree which requires love as the water.
Nirmala Srivastava
Science is absolutely incomplete unless and until the scientists are Realised Souls. Medicine is incomplete, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, everything is incomplete unless and until you know the Divine laws.
Nirmala Srivastava
As a mother would see her child, you should see the whole world as a beautiful place that God has created for you.
Nirmala Srivastava
Sahaja Yoga is nothing but love, love, love. How much you love others is the main point.
Nirmala Srivastava
You have to learn humility. First of all you have to be humble people. Unless and until you have a large heart you can never humble down. You have to be an extremely humble person. Humility doesn't mean that you bow to a person who is dominating, it never means that. But it means a strength within you. The person who is weak can never be humble.
Nirmala Srivastava
A person who is innocent is extremely humble.
Nirmala Srivastava
The main thing is you have to be under the protection of spirituality, under the protection of morality, under the protection of divine laws. If you're not under that protection, you can get caught up into anything.
Nirmala Srivastava
The evolution has to take place still within us to know ourselves. We can say that unless and until it is put to the mains, it has no meaning. Unless and until we are connected with the whole, we have no meaning.
Nirmala Srivastava
The ascent is the aim of your life and to perfect it is your job.
Nirmala Srivastava
Integration is nothing but your complete connection with your spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
Only your ascent is important. Once you ascend, everything is saved
Nirmala Srivastava
If you want to be positive, it is very easy and for that you should see where is your attention. Are you only seeing problems or are you seeing some fun in it?
Nirmala Srivastava
Self Realization is the first encounter with reality.
Nirmala Srivastava
In emotions you should be bubbling with joy. Joy is your emotion. In action you should be thoughtless and in ascent you should be surrendered.
Nirmala Srivastava
How to do meditation, many people ask. Don't do anything, just go into thoughtless awareness. Try to go to the thoughtless awareness. If you can get into that condition of thoughtless awareness, you've done your job because that's the point where you are with the truth, with the reality, with the joy, with everything that is so fundamental.
Nirmala Srivastava
So to overcome the problems of personality the best thing is to witness, practice witnessing everything: before talking, practice witnessing, before giving any comments, just start witnessing. It's a very, very satisfying attitude.
