All is a play in consciousness. All divisions are illusory. You can know the false only. The true you must yourself be.

Image
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

Awareness neither dies nor is re-born. It is the changeless reality itself.
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
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.

How do you go about finding anything? By keeping your mind and heart on it. Interest there must be and steady remembrance. To remember what needs to be remembered is the secret of success. You come to it through earnestness
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
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
Image
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
Image
We miss the real by lack of attention, and create the unreal by excess of imagination.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Laugh with people laughing, cry with people crying, but don't fall into the river of world illusion. Stay on the banks.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
