Self Realization is the first encounter with reality.
Nirmala Srivastava
And so we realize that human beings have to be transformed and have to enter into a higher state of awareness, through inner transformation. This has to be the last breakthrough of our evolution, which is a living process.
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
The ascent is the aim of your life and to perfect it is your job.
Nirmala Srivastava
There is no need to condemn yourself in any way, or to elate yourself, but just be your Spirit. The best way to be with your Spirit is to forgive.

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
Ego is the greatest hurdle for your ascent. You see that ego is at a place where you have to just cross to go to Sahasrara, and to break Sahasrara is very easy otherwise. But if there is ego, you are already lost in that ego.
Nirmala Srivastava
Wisdom plays such a part in life that whatever may happen outside, whatever may be the trend, whatever may be the fashion, whatever may be the people are all changing into, you do not change. You change within.
Nirmala Srivastava
Without quietude you cannot enjoy the cool vibrations of the Divine.
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
Benevolence means whatever is good for your Spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
That's the quality of the Spirit that you start feeling so joyous and the joy doesn't have the duality of happiness and unhappiness. It's singular.
Nirmala Srivastava
Innocence is something to be appreciated, to be understood, to be enjoyed. Like you see animals, they're innocent you see children, they're innocent flowers, they're innocent. Divert your attention to all these things.
Nirmala Srivastava
Open your hearts, open your hearts, then only you can enjoy yourself.
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
We have to get awakened to the fact that in recent decades, great destruction has been caused to our moral values as a result of our children, parents and families, getting influenced by the chaotic conditions of modern times.
Nirmala Srivastava
Your nervous system has to become collectively conscious.
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
By meditation we develop that strength within us, so automatically we start solving the problem.
