More quotes by 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
The world is like a sheet of paper on which something is typed. The reading and the meaning will vary with the reader, but the paper is the common factor, always present, rarely perceived. When the ribbon is removed, typing leaves no trace on the paper. So is my mind - the impressions keep on coming, but no trace is left.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

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

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

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
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
In peace and silence, the skin of the 'I' dissolves and the inner and the outer become one.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

You know that you are. Don't burden yourself with names, just be. Any name or shape you give yourself obscures your real nature.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
What you need will come to you if you do not ask for what you do not need.
