Excerpts from
Nisargadatta's Lost Satsang:
The whole manifestation
of this world is an expression of the same Consciousness that you
are.
You should not love
anything other than your true nature, Consciousness. Deep
desires, deep expectations: How can that be love?
Your body identity is
attracted to objects. It creates desires and you treat them as
high priorities. Understanding yourself should be your only
priority.
Your body desires will
lead you nowhere.
~ ~ ~
If you don't understand
the "I Am" how can you understand the rest?
~ ~ ~
To abide in consciousness
is the true religion. The human brain creates religions.
~ ~ ~
Consciousness has to
appear in this form, so this form can recognize Consciousness.
~ ~ ~
How can words explain
that from which words originate?
~ ~ ~
Everything depends upon
your form, but you are formless.
~ ~ ~
Don't ask me practical
questions. I cannot relate to them. I never talk to the body
identity level. Stay in the "I am". That's all there is
to do.
~ ~ ~
Without food there is
death and the idea "I am" vanishes. Consciousness is
beyond any idea.
You can only watch events
happen. You can't use Consciousness to do or undo anything.
~ ~ ~
Your body identity is
like a very tight screw. Your idea of being an individual, is a
screw. You must loosen it up. Let go of your personal identity
and the screw will open as much as needed.
You are full of concepts.
Just do as I say.
~ ~ ~
If you wish to use your
intellect dwell on your nine months in the womb. What is in the
womb is not different from what is happening now.
~ ~ ~
Anything that can show
you what you are is actually pointing out what you are not.
~ ~ ~
~ ~ ~
What I am saying is very
simple.
You listen to me or you
can go.
~ ~ ~
Grasp the knowingness
principle and move ahead in life. Like a swimmer caught in a
vortex has to dive to the bottom of the river, then has to swim
to the surface, outside of the vortex, and only then he is free.
~ ~ ~
We live like worms in hot
sand, always needing help, but I am not a worm. I am the
manifested and the unmanifested.
~ ~ ~
Before death comes it is
necessary to follow a Sage or a Guru.
~ ~ ~
My Guru's Guru clapped
while his vital breath was leaving his body. Will you?
