The problem is not yours - it is your mind's only. Begin by disassociating yourself from your mind. Resolutely remind yourself that you are not the mind and that its problems are not yours.

More quotes by Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Words can bring you only up to their own limit to go beyond, you must abandon them. Remain as the silent witness only.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
When all names and forms have been given up, the real is with you. You need not seek it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
There is nothing wrong with duality as long as it does not create conflict. Multiplicity and variety without strife is joy. In pure consciousness there is light. For warmth, contact is needed. Above the unity of being is the union of love. Love is the purpose of duality.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Real happiness is not vulnerable, because it does not depend on circumstances.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Suffering is a call for inquiry, all pain needs investigation.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
What you need will come to you if you do not ask for what you do not need.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The only thing required of you is to allow all your raging desires to relax into preferences. Then everything will be done through you and for you, not by you.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
It is not what you do, but what you stop doing that matters.
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
The innermost light, shining peacefully and timelessly in the heart, is the real Guru. All others merely show the way.
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
If you are angry or in pain, separate yourself from anger and pain and watch them. Externalization is the first step to liberation.
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
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
The universe is but a partial manifestation of your limitless capacity to become.
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
In peace and silence, the skin of the 'I' dissolves and the inner and the outer become one.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In my world, nothing ever goes wrong.
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
Your first task is to see the sorrow in you and around you your next, to long intensely for liberation. The very intensity of longing will guide you you need no other guide.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
