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
If we do not know how to respect the Mother Earth, we do not know how to respect ourselves.
Nirmala Srivastava
So there is nothing to be proud of these worldly possessions. What you are to be proud of, or to be conscious of is your spirit. Spirit is the only thing that can kindle another spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
Fanaticism is such a blind stuff that it can never give you any idea as to what is reality. Because whatever you believe into, you build up your own ideas and everything onto it and it's like a fake palace built on a fake idea. And then you go on fighting. If God is one, if His love is one, then how can people who believe in God fight?
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.
Nirmala Srivastava
A person is wise who does not only know what is right and wrong, but also he knows very well his own power not to do something wrong. He just does not do it. Wisdom is a complete power within ourselves by which we try nothing. It just spontaneously works through us and we do things which are proper and right.
Nirmala Srivastava
Truth is one, single, and it can never be misinterpreted. To know the truth it is essential that whatever human awareness we have got, it has to be expanded. There is something still lacking in that awareness by which we cannot know God, we cannot know the truth.
Nirmala Srivastava
When you are the Spirit, you are like a brilliant diamond, which is giving light by itself.
Nirmala Srivastava
Now, you just watch your attention. Where is it going? Watch yourself. As soon as you'll start watching yourself, your attention, you'll become more identified with your Spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
The attention is to be kept pure.
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
Dharma gives you the balance. It gives you the establishment into proper behavior, proper understanding, proper living, but it doesn't give you the completion of your journey. It doesn't give you the satisfaction of reaching the destination and your personality is still incomplete. So one has to have the experience of the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
The light of the spirit has to come into your attention.
Nirmala Srivastava
To please the Divine, our character, our behavior should be absolutely clean.
Nirmala Srivastava
Attention has to be concentrated upon your Spirit. Then you become the best instrument, your attention very powerful.
Nirmala Srivastava
Spirit is like a mirror where you see yourself clearly and you start changing yourself.
Nirmala Srivastava
Your nervous system has to become collectively conscious.
Nirmala Srivastava
To get rid of greed, you should try to do some sort of a collective social work.
Nirmala Srivastava
The absolute awareness only comes when you become the Spirit. When you get your realization and you become the Spirit. When you are the Spirit, then what happens that you start feeling on your central nervous the centers of all the people who are around you and your own centers.
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.
