Nobody ever fails in Yoga....It is slow in the beginning and rapid in the end. When one is fully matured, realization is explosive.

All will happen as you want it, provided you really want it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Abandon false ideas, that is all. There is no need of true ideas. There aren't any.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
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
Image
Whatever you come across- go beyond
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
The universe is but a partial manifestation of your limitless capacity to become.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Knowing that you are nothing is Wisdom, Knowing that you are everything is Love.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Instead of searching for what you do not have, find out what it is that you have never lost.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
By being with yourself, the 'I am', by watching yourself in your daily life with alert interest, with the intention to understand rather than judge, in full acceptance of whatever may emerge, because it is there, you encourage the deep to come to the surface, and enrich your life and consciousness with its captive energies.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
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
Image
Past and future are in the mind only - I am now.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Everybody does the same mistake: refusing the means, but wanting the ends. You want peace and harmony in the world, but refuse to have them in yourself.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
In nature nothing is at standstill, everything pulsates, appears and disappears. Heart, breath, digestion, sleep and waking - birth and death - everything comes and goes in waves. Rhythm, periodicity, harmonious alternation of extremes is the rule. No use rebelling against the very pattern of life.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
The personal needs a base, a body to identify oneself with, just as a colour needs a surface to appear on.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Don't pretend to be what you are not. Don't refuse to be what you are.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Nature is neither pleasant nor painful. It is all intelligence and beauty. Pain and pleasure are in the mind.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Absolute perfection is here and now, not in some future, near or far. The secret is in action - here and now. It is your behavior that blinds you to yourself. Disregard whatever you think yourself to be and act as if you were absolutely perfect - whatever your idea of perfection may be. All you need is courage.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Refuse all thoughts except one: the thought 'I am'. The mind will rebel in the beginning, but with patience and perseverance it will yield and keep quiet. Once you are quiet, things will begin to happen spontaneously and quite naturally, without any interference on your part.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Life is love and love is life.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
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

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.
