Abandon the false and you are free of pain; truth makes happy, truth liberates.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajOnce you realize that the world is your own projection, you are free of it. You need not free yourself of a world that does not exist, except in your own imagination! However is the picture, beautiful or ugly, you are painting it and you are not bound by it. Realize that there is nobody to force it on you, that it is due to the habit of taking the imaginary to be real. See the imaginary as imaginary and be free of fear.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajDiscard every self-seeking motive as soon as it is seen, and you need not search for truth; truth will find you.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajWith self-awareness you grow more intelligent. In awareness you learn, in self-awareness you learn about yourself. Of course, you can only learn what you are not. To know what you are, you must go beyond the mind. Awareness is the point at which the mind reaches out beyond itself into reality. In awareness you seek not what pleases, but what is true.
