The moment you know your real being, you are afraid of nothing. Death gives freedom and power. To be free in the world, you must die to the world. Then the universe is your own, it becomes your body, an expression and a tool. The happiness of being absolutely free is beyond description.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajFreedom to do what one likes is really bondage, while being free to do what one must, what is right, is real freedom.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajOnce you understand that the false needs time and what needs time is false, you are nearer the Reality, which is timeless, ever in the NOW.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajSee that you are not what you believe yourself to be. Fight with all the strength at your disposal against the idea that you are nameable and describable. You are not. Refuse to think of this or that. There is no other way out of misery, which you have created for yourself through blind acceptance without investigation. Suffering is a call for inquiry, all pain needs investigation. Don't be lazy to think.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajAll you need is already within you, only you must approach your self with reverence and love. Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors. Your constant flight from pain and search for pleasure is a sign of love you bear for your self, all I plead with you is this: make love of your self perfect. Deny yourself nothing -- glue your self infinity and eternity and discover that you do not need them; you are beyond.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
