“The way to truth lies through the destruction of the false. To destroy the false, you must question your most inveterate beliefs. Of these the idea that you are the body is the worst. …Realize that what you are cannot be born nor die and with the fear gone all suffering ends.”
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj 
“All separation, every kind of estrangement and alienation is false. All is one—this is the ultimate solution of every conflict.”
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
“The sense of presence expressing through the mind as the thought ‘I am’ is pure intelligence energy.
It is the knowing that you are.
The same intelligence-energy is functioning this universe.
That innate intelligence is the essence of everything that appears and disappears.
Realize that you are aware of presence right now.
You know that you are.
It spontaneously arises.
The vibration, pulsation or throb of that intelligence is happening spontaneously.
There is nothing to start it; nothing to stop it.
Realize there is no one to do it, and nothing to do, and it will settle down of its own accord.”
When Bentinho was asked what about when a person gives, gives and gives and feels like it is one way, his reply was simply “there is no separation between the giver and the receiver, therefore you are only giving to your self”.
“II Atma is the immutable Consciousness that, without effort or any change in Itself, perceives such modifications of the mind.
III A little thinking will show that this is the principle signified by the word “I”.”
“…The gist of this verse is that the witness’s knowledge, unlike the mind’s, is unattached by change and effort. The sun shines in its own glory. Light is the sun’s very nature or being, not its function. Nor has it any idea to illuminate objects. But living beings perceive objects by the light of the sun. This makes them superimpose upon the sun the function of illuminating objects. In the same way thoughts and objects reveal themselves in consciousness. When the function of revealing is superimposed upon consciousness, it becomes the witness. As a matter of fact, consciousness shines of itself. Light or revelation is its very nature, not its function or property. It is this truth that is set forth in the above verses. When one attains to that higher witness aspect, one will come to realise that it is pure consciousness without even a tinge of witness hood.”
Excerpt from Atma Darshan, Sri Krishna Melon
He, whose mind is captivated by the beauty of a figure sculptured in a piece of rock, forgets even the fact of the rock being its background.
When he rises above this captivation and looks at the figure, he sees the background, rock, which supports the figure.
When the rock thus receives attention, rock is seen also in the figure, and later on the figure is seen as nothing other than rock.
Enlightenment of truth also comes in this manner. Consciousness becomes dimmed chiefly through one’s captivation and abiding interest in external objects.
When one outgrows this interest and looks at the objects it will be found that they rise and abide in Consciousness alone.
When consciousness thus begins to received due attention, it becomes revealed in the objects as well, and they themselves will in due course become transformed into Consciousness.
It is the realisation of oneself and the entire world as one Consciousness that is known as realisation of Truth.
Excerpt from Atma Darshan by Sri Atmananda – Sri Krishna Melon
“Be quiet. See the mind as it is. Grace action starts. Then Peace occupies your Heart. Then be still. The Grace of Self burns all your tendencies. No question or any practice is needed. You already reached the destination. That is the Source of thought. If you lose your Awareness, immediately sleep, deep sleep or thought will come. Stop just for a few seconds, see the covering, and immediately Awareness will come. Then if you question, ‘To Whom?’, and wait, the question and thought will vanish. Again we will get Peace. Then be quiet and still.
While you are in Peace, see the experiencer of that Peace or question, ‘Who is that experiencer?’. The experiencer will disappear. But it rises again and again. As and when it rises, see it with Peace and Awareness or question, ‘Who Am I?’, until it burns. When the seer or the experiencer or the questioner burns permanently – that is Jeevanmukti (Self Realization). ”

Feel the Presence within yourself.
Feel the happiness and the joy that you really are.
Feel it! You can feel it.
No matter how many so-called problems
you may appear to have,
no matter what is going on in your life, good or bad,
forget about that. It doesn’t matter.
Feel the Presence. Do not think about it – just feel it.
When you begin to think about it, you spoil it.
Allow the mind to rave on.
Do not pay a bit of attention to the mind,
whatever thoughts it brings you, whatever it tells you.
Pay no attention whatsoever to the mind.
Feel the bliss. You ARE the bliss.
There is absolutely nothing that you need
or have to become.
Do not search for enlightenment or liberation.
You’ll never find it. There’s nowhere to look for it.
When you look with your senses, where is liberation?
Where’s freedom?
It doesn’t exist.
When you go beyond the senses,
when you pay no attention to the senses
and you go beyond them
by observing them, looking at them,
and not reacting to them,
then you find that you’ve always been in bliss.
Bliss happiness is your very nature.
You are That.
Words of Robert Adams, Silence of the Heart
At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want.
If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them – that only creates sorrow.
Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
Rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profoundness.
Kindness in giving creates love.
Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment.
The words of truth are always paradoxical.
Truthful words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not truthful.
Good words are not persuasive; persuasive words are not good.
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.
Lao Tzu
Thank you to the dear friend whom shared this with me. xo
(Sadhana)
Everyone here is Absolute Reality, Pure Awareness,
This is your real nature.
Right now, not some time in the future.
Not when you get enlightened.
Not when you search for the answers.
But right this moment. This is what you are.
Why will you not accept it?
When you think about yourself, do you think
you’re a punny human
that has to struggle for existence and fight for survival?
As long as you believe this, that’s what it’s going
to be for you.
But as soon as you accept the truth about yourself,
that you are a delight, Divine Sat-Chit-Ananda,
You will be free.
You simply have to accept this.
There are no rituals you have to go through.
There are no prayers you have to chant.
You simply have to awaken to your true nature,
Pure Awareness,
Nirvana,
Bliss,
Consciousness.
This is what you are right at this moment.
Words of Robert Adams, Silence of the Heart.
