You merely dream that you roam about. In a few years your stay in India will appear as a dream to you. You will dream some other dream at that time. Do realize that it is not you who moves from dream to dream, but the dreams flow before you and you are the immutable witness. No happening affects your real being-that is the absolute truth.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajStay open and quiet, that is all. What you seek is so near you that there is no place for a way.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajYou have put so much energy into building a prison for yourself. Now spend as much on demolishing it.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajIn the light of calm and steady self-awareness, inner energies wake up and work miracles without any effort on your part.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajInstead of searching for what you do not have, find out what it is that you have never lost.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajWisdom is knowing I am nothing, Love is knowing I am everything, and between the two my life moves.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajI find that somehow, by shifting the focus of attention, I become the very thing I look at, and experience the kind of consciousness it has; I become the inner witness of the thing. I call this capacity of entering other focal points of consciousness, love; you may give it any name you like. Love says "I am everything". Wisdom says "I am nothing". Between the two, my life flows. Since at any point of time and space I can be both the subject and the object of experience, I express it by saying that I am both, and neither, and beyond both.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
