To know that you are neither the body nor mind, watch yourself steadily and live unaffected by your body and mind, completely aloof, as if you were dead. It means you have no vested interests, either in the body or in the mind.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajGive up the idea of being a person, that is all. You need not become what you are anyhow. There is the identity of what you are and there is the person superimposed on it. All you know is the person, the identity - which is not a person - you do not know, for you never doubted, never asked yourself the crucial question: 'Who am I?'
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajAbandon false ideas, that is all. There is no need of true ideas. There aren't any.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajCome to the conclusion: I am unborn, I was unborn and I shall remain unborn
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajLook at your mind dispassionately; this is enough to calm it. When it is quiet, you can go beyond it. Do not keep it busy all the time. Stop it - and just BE.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajLove is not selective, desire is selective. In love there are no strangers. When the centre of selfishness is no longer, all desires for pleasure and fear of pain cease; one is no longer interested in being happy; beyond happiness there is pure intensity, inexhaustible energy, the ecstasy of giving from a perennial source.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
