The Nisargadatta Gita by Pradeep Apte - Part 28

read by James Traverse



The Nisargadatta Gita
Pradeep Apte
 
 
28. Prior to birth where was the ‘I am’?
Don’t contaminate the ‘I am’ with the body idea,
I as the Absolute am not the ‘I am’.

What were you before you were born? Where was the ‘I am’?
You were ‘Nothing’ and there was no ‘I am’.

 On this Nothingness of yours has the ‘I am’ appeared
and it has got contaminated with the body idea.

Now, through discrimination you need to undertake a decontamination
procedure, free the ‘I am’ of the body idea, abide in it and transcend it,
because you as the Absolute are not the ‘I am’.
