Pure knowledge is not imparted by another; it comes unmasked. It is the one that is listening: it is your own true nature.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajWhen all names and forms have been given up, the real is with you. You need not seek it.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajWould people know that nothing can happen unless the entire universe makes it happen, they would achieve much more with less expenditure of energy.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajWhen the mind is quiet, we come to know ourselves as the pure witness. We withdraw from the experience and its experiencer and stand apart in pure awareness, which is between and beyond the two. The personality, based on self-identification, on imagining itself to be something: 'I am this, I am that', continues, but only as a part of the objective world. Its identification with the witness snaps.
