Awareness neither dies nor is re-born. It is the changeless reality itself.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajBeing oneself is completely beyond all motivation. You cannot be yourself for some reason. You are yourself, and no reason is needed.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajUse your mind. Remember. Observe. You are not different from others. Most of their experiences are valid for you too. Think clearly and deeply, go into the structure of your desires and their ramifications. They are a most important part of your mental and emotional make-up and powerfully affect your actions. Remember, you cannot abandon what you do not know. To go beyond yourself, you must know yourself.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajAbsolute perfection is here and now, not in some future, near or far. The secret is in action - here and now. It is your behavior that blinds you to yourself. Disregard whatever you think yourself to be and act as if you were absolutely perfect - whatever your idea of perfection may be. All you need is courage.
