To deal with things knowledge of things is needed. To deal with people, you need insight, sympathy. To deal with yourself, you need nothing. Be what you are--conscious being--and don't stray away from yourself.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajAbandon false ideas, that is all. There is no need of true ideas. There aren't any.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajStop, look, investigate, ask the right questions, come to the right conclusions and have the courage to act on them and see what happens. The first steps may bring the roof down on your head, but soon the commotion will clear and there will be peace and joy.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
