You need not know what you are. Enough to know what you are not. What you are you will never know, for every discovery reveals new dimensions to conquer. The unknown has no limits.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajThe personal needs a base, a body to identify oneself with, just as a colour needs a surface to appear on.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajKnowledge gives power. In practice it is very simple. To control yourself, know yourself.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajWe grow through investigation, and to investigate we need experience. We tend to repeat what we have not understood. If we are sensitive and intelligent, we need not suffer. Pain is a call for attention and the penalty of carelessness. Intelligent and compassionate action is the only remedy.
