The only difference between us is that I am aware of my natural state, while you are bemused.... We discover it by being earnest, by searching, enquiring, questioning daily and hourly, by giving one's life to this discovery.

More quotes by Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Laugh with people laughing, cry with people crying, but don't fall into the river of world illusion. Stay on the banks.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In peace and silence, the skin of the 'I' dissolves and the inner and the outer become one.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
To be a living being is not the ultimate state there is something [the Reality] beyond, much more wonderful, which is neither being nor non-being, neither living nor not-living. It is a state of Pure Awareness, beyond the limitations of space and time.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Leave your mind alone, that is all. Do not go along with it. After all, there is no such thing as mind apart from thoughts which come and go obeying their own laws, not yours. They dominate you only because you are interested in them.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Steady faith is stronger than destiny. Destiny is the result of causes, mostly accidental, and is therefore loosely woven. Confidence and good hope will overcome it easily.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
A quiet mind is all you need. All else will happen rightly, once your mind is quiet.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The universe is but a partial manifestation of your limitless capacity to become.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The world does not yield to changing. By its very nature it is painful and transient. See it as it is and divest yourself of all desire and fear. When the world does not hold and bind you, it becomes an abode of joy and beauty. You can be happy in the world only when you are free of it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Seeking out causes is a pastime of the mind. There is no duality of cause and effect. Everything is its own cause.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Just be. Let your true nature emerge. Don't disturb your mind with seeking.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Truth gives no advantage. It gives no higher status, no power over others all you get is truth and freedom from the false.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Whatever you may have to do, watch your mind. Also you must have moments of complete inner peace and quiet, when your mind is absolutely still. If you miss it, you miss the entire thing. If you do not, the silence of the mind will dissolve and absorb all else.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
All you can teach is understanding. The rest comes on its own.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You may die a hundred deaths without a break in the mental turmoil. Or, you may keep your body and die only in the mind. The death of the mind is the birth of wisdom.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Love.. is seeing the unity under the imaginary diversity.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
We miss the real by lack of attention, and create the unreal by excess of imagination.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Don't pretend to be what you are not. Don't refuse to be what you are.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
How can an unsteady mind make itself steady? Of course it cannot. It is the nature of the mind to roam about. All you can do is to shift the focus of consciousness beyond the mind.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Don't rely on your mind for liberation. It is the mind that brought you into bondage. Go beyond it altogether.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Knowing that you are nothing is Wisdom, Knowing that you are everything is Love.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
