More quotes by Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
It does not matter much what happens.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You have never been, nor shall ever be, a person. Refuse to consider yourself as one. But as long as you do not even doubt yourself to be Mr. So-and-so, there is little hope. When you refuse to open your eyes, what can you be shown?
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Don't pretend to be what you are not. Don't refuse to be what you are.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
If you imagine yourself as separate from the the world, the world will appear as separate from you and you will experience desire and fear. I do not see the world as separate from me and so there is nothing for me to desire, or fear.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
It is just like your tape-recorder. It records, it reproduces - all by itself. You only listen. Similarly, I watch all that happens, including my talking to you. It is not me who talks, the words appear in my mind and then I hear them said.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Moods are in the mind and do not matter. Go within, go beyond. Cease being fascinated by the content of your consciousness. When you reach the deep layers of your true being, you will find that the mind's surface-play affects you very little.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
When I see I am nothing, that is wisdom. When I see I am everything, that is love. My life is a movement between these two.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The universe is but a partial manifestation of your limitless capacity to become.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Suffering is a call for inquiry, all pain needs investigation.
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
To believe that you depend on things and people for happiness is due to ignorance of your true nature to know that you need nothing to be happy, except Self-knowledge, is wisdom.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Past and future are in the mind only - I am now.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The sum and substance of my teaching is this: Don't be dishonest to your vital breath worship that only, abide in that only, accept it as yourself. And when you worship in this manner, it can lead you anywhere, to any heights- this is the quintessence of my talks.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The world you perceive is made of consciousness what you call matter is consciousness itself.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Come to the conclusion: I am unborn, I was unborn and I shall remain unborn
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
There are no steps to self-realization. There is nothing gradual about it. It happens suddenly and is irreversible. You rotate into a new dimension, seen from which the previous ones are mere abstractions. Just like on sunrise you see things as they are, so on self-realization you see everything as it is. The world of illusions is left behind.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You are really in search of yourself, without knowing it. You are love-longing for the love-worthy, the perfect lovable. Due to ignorance you are looking for it in the world of opposites and contradictions. When you find it within, your search will be over.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Learn to live without self concern. For this you must know your own true being as indomitable, fearless and ever victorious. Once you know with absolute certainty that nothing can trouble you but your own imagination, you come to disregard your desires and fears, concepts and ideas, and live by truth alone.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Unless you make tremendous efforts, you will not be convinced that effort will take you nowhere. The self is so self-confident that unless it is totally discouraged it will not give up. Mere verbal conviction is not enough. Hard facts alone can show the absolute nothingness of the self-image.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In my world, nothing ever goes wrong.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
