More quotes by 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
All your desires, whatever they may be, are expressions of your longing for happiness. Basically, you wish yourself well.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Nature is neither pleasant nor painful. It is all intelligence and beauty. Pain and pleasure are in the mind.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The window is the absence of the wall, and it gives air and light because it is empty. Be empty of all mental content, of all imagination and effort, and the very absence of obstacles will cause reality to rush in.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Real happiness is not vulnerable, because it does not depend on circumstances.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You take yourself to be limited, but you are not. Discover this. Stay silent and attentive. Be earnest about it. Just be aware of your being here and now. Reality will find you.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Who was born first, you or the world? As long as you give first place to the world, you are bound by it once you realize, beyond all trace of doubt, that the world is in you and not you in the world, you are out of it. Of course your body remains in the world and of the world, but you are not deluded by it.
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
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
All you can teach is understanding. The rest comes on its own.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You want to know yourself. For this keep steadily in the focus of consciousness, the only clue you have: your certainty of being. Be with it, play with it, ponder over it, delve deeply into it, till the shell of ignorance breaks open and you emerge into the realm of reality.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The universe is but a partial manifestation of your limitless capacity to become.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Awareness neither dies nor is re-born. It is the changeless reality itself.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Abandon false ideas, that is all. There is no need of true ideas. There aren't any.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
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
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
To find reality you must be real in the smallest daily action there can be no deceit in the search for truth.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
There is nothing to practice. To know yourself, be yourself. To be yourself, stop imagining yourself to be this or that. Just be. Let your true nature emerge. Don't disturb your mind with seeking.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Know yourself to be the changeless witness of the changeful mind. That is enough.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The relinquishing of the lesser is the gaining of the greater. Give up all and you gain all.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
