You are too much concerned with past and future. It is all due to your longing to continue, to protect yourself against extinction. And as you want to continue, you want others to keep you company, hence your concern with their survival. But what you call survival is but the survival of a dream.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajAll separation, every kind of estrangement and alienation is false. All is one.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajPure knowledge is not imparted by another; it comes unmasked. It is the one that is listening: it is your own true nature.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajHow can an unsteady mind make itself steady? Of course it cannot. It is the nature of the mind to roam about. All you can do is to shift the focus of consciousness beyond the mind.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajYou merely dream that you roam about. In a few years your stay in India will appear as a dream to you. You will dream some other dream at that time. Do realize that it is not you who moves from dream to dream, but the dreams flow before you and you are the immutable witness. No happening affects your real being-that is the absolute truth.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
