The root of fear is the feeling of not being what you are.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
You are not the body. You are the immensity and infinity of consciousness.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Only the people who have gone beyond the world can change the world.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Awareness neither dies nor is re-born. It is the changeless reality itself.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The real does not die, the unreal never lived. Set your mind right and all will be right. When you know that the world is one, that humanity is one, you will act accordingly. But first of all you must attend to the way you feel, think and live. Unless there is order in yourself, there can be no order in the world.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Freedom to do what one likes is really bondage, while being free to do what one must, what is right, is real freedom.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The essence of saintliness is total acceptance of the present moment, harmony with things as they happen.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Love.. is seeing the unity under the imaginary diversity.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
I ask you only to stop imagining that you were born, have parents, are a body, will die and so on. Just try, make a beginning-it is not as hard as you think.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
We miss the real by lack of attention, and create the unreal by excess of imagination.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In the light of calm and steady self-awareness, inner energies wake up and work miracles without any effort on your part.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
In marriage you are neither the husband nor the wife you are the love between two.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Knowing that you are nothing is Wisdom, Knowing that you are everything is Love.
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
Truth is not a reward for good behaviour, nor a prize for passing some tests. It cannot be brought about. It is the primary, the unborn, the ancient source of all that is. You are eligible because you are. You need not merit truth. It is your own....Stand still, be quiet.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Whatever happens, happens to you by you, through you you are the creator, enjoyer and destroyer of all you perceive.
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
All you can teach is understanding. The rest comes on its own.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
There is only life, there is nobody who lives a life.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Nobody ever fails in Yoga....It is slow in the beginning and rapid in the end. When one is fully matured, realization is explosive.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
