Whatever can be understood or perceived can never be the eternal Truth. The Unknown is the Truth.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajEverybody does the same mistake: refusing the means, but wanting the ends. You want peace and harmony in the world, but refuse to have them in yourself.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajOne who is afraid of time becomes a prey of time. But time itself becomes a prey of that one who is not afraid of it.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajTo know that you are neither the body nor mind, watch yourself steadily and live unaffected by your body and mind, completely aloof, as if you were dead. It means you have no vested interests, either in the body or in the mind.
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 MaharajIt is the mind that tells you that the mind is there. Don't be deceived. All the endless arguments about the mind are produced by the mind itself, for its own protection, continuation and expansion. It is the blank refusal to consider the convolutions and convulsions of the mind that can take you beyond it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
