Forgetting your Self is the greatest injury; all the calamities flow from it. Take care of the most important, the lesser will take care of itself. You do not tidy up a dark room. You open the windows first. Letting in the light makes everything easy. So, let us wait with improving others until we see ourselves as we are/ and have changed. There is no need to turn round and round in endless questioning; find yourself and everything will fall into its proper place.
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 MaharajDo you realize the unimaginable greatness, the holiness of what you so casually call 'consciousness'? It is the unmanifest Absolute aware of its awareness through the manifestation, of which your mind-body is presently a part.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajDon't ask the mind to confirm what is beyond the mind. Direct experience is the only valid confirmation.
