If you imagine yourself as separate from the the world, the world will appear as separate from you and you will experience desire and fear. I do not see the world as separate from me and so there is nothing for me to desire, or fear.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajIf you could only keep quiet, clear of memories and expectations, you would be able to discern the beautiful pattern of events. Its your restlessness that causes chaos.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajBeing oneself is completely beyond all motivation. You cannot be yourself for some reason. You are yourself, and no reason is needed.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajAbsolute perfection is here and now, not in some future, near or far. The secret is in action - here and now. It is your behavior that blinds you to yourself. Disregard whatever you think yourself to be and act as if you were absolutely perfect - whatever your idea of perfection may be. All you need is courage.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
