More quotes by Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You are not the body. You are the immensity and infinity of consciousness.
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
When you know beyond all doubting that the same life flows through all that is, and you are that life, you will love all naturally and spontaneously.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
We are slaves of what we don't knowof what we know we are masters.Whatever vice or weakness in ourselves we discoverand understand its cause and workings,we overcome it by the very knowing.The primary purpose of meditation is to become more consciousand familiar with our inner life.The ultimate purpose is to reach the source of life.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Give your real being a chance to shape your life. You will not regret it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Your weakness is due to your conviction that you were born into the world. In reality the world is ever recreated in you and by you. See everything as emanating from the light which is the source of your own being.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
When I look inside and see that I'm nothing, that's wisdom. When I look outside and see that I'm everything, that's love. And between these two, my life turns.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In the light of calm and steady self-awareness, inner energies wake up and work miracles without any effort on your part.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Freedom is from something. What are you to be free from? Obviously, you must be free from the person you take yourself to be, for it is the idea you have of yourself that keeps you in bondage.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
When effort is needed, effort will appear. When effortlessness becomes essential, it will assert itself. You need not push life about. Just flow with it and give yourself completely to the task of the present moment.
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
The personal needs a base, a body to identify oneself with, just as a colour needs a surface to appear on.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You have projected onto yourself a world of your own imagination, based on memories, on desires and fears, and you have imprisoned yourself in it. Break the spell and be free.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
I ask you only to stop imagining that you were born, have parents, are a body, will die and so on. Just try, make a beginning-it is not as hard as you think.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The real you is timeless and beyond life and death.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Detach yourself from all that makes your mind restless. Renounce all that disturbs its peace. If you want peace, deserve it. By being a slave to your desires and fears, you disturb peace.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Until we can look at fear and accept it as the shadow of personal existence, as persons we are bound to be afraid.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Having never left the house you are looking for the way home
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In your world everything must have a beginning and an end. If it does not, you call it eternal. In my view, there is no such thing as beginning and end - these are all related to time. Timeless being is entirely in the now. Being and not-being alternate and their reality is momentary. The immutable Reality lies beyond space and time.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Your true meaning cannot be grasped or captured by words. You can never be equated with any words, because you are prior to words.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
