Seeds Of Consciousness

 

🌹 Seeds Of Consciousness - 1 🌹
✍️ Nisargadatta Maharaj
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj

You have to go within. Whatever great things have happened in nature, however powerful, still they disappear right here. These situations appear and disappear.

This is actually abstract, what is solid here is the knowledge "I am". The seen and seeing disappear. I tell this only to those who are prepared to listen. Whatever appears is bound to disappear.

There are so many who take the dawn for the noon, a momentary experience for full realisation and destroy even the little they gain by excess of pride.

Humility and silence are essential for a sadhaka, however advanced.

🌻 ‘I am this or that’ 🌻

Now, you are trying to understand all this but you cannot, because you have on the swaddling clothes of 'I am this or that'. Remove them.

The ultimate point of view is that there is nothing to understand. So, trying to understand is just indulging in mental acrobatics.

Whatever you have understood you are not. Spit it all out. Whatever you understand is not the truth. Throw it overboard.

Do not try to catch hold of any concepts and cling to them. Don't employ any words, but look at yourself as you are.

Throw away every thought, every experience, everything that happens after the consciousness, the beingness comes. Other than throwing it away as useless, there is nothing to be done beyond this firm understanding in which you become more and more absorbed. Before the beingness was there, look at that, be in that state.

Do not get lost in words and thoughts and ideas. Do not crave for mind knowledge and concepts in the name of spirituality. Anything that is seen and interpreted by the mind is only an appearance in consciousness, and, therefore, cannot be true.

The knowledgeable one just witnesses whatever experiences are obtainable through the mind, viewing them as without substance.

The mind may be sprouting, expressing itself with various concepts. But, don't identify with that, let it go. Don't be a customer to your mind concepts.

The knower of the mind is just a witness. He does not interfere in anything.

1) Once the conviction:

‘I am not the body’ becomes so well grounded that he can no longer feel, think and act for and on behalf of the body, he will easily discover that he is the universal being, knowing, acting,
that in him and through him the entire universe is real, conscious and active.

2) The totality of conscious experiences is nature.

As a conscious self you are a part of nature.
As awareness, you are beyond. Seeing nature as mere consciousness is awareness. [but for awareness Maharaj says : There is a mysterious power that looks after them. That power is (awareness, Self, Life, God, whatever name you give it). It is the foundation, the ultimate support of all that is.]

✍️ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

The memory of the past unfulfilled desires traps energy, which manifests itself as a person. When its charge gets exhausted, the person dies.

Unfulfilled desires are carried over into the next birth. Self-identification with the body creates ever fresh desires and there is no end to them, unless this mechanism of bondage is clearly seen.

It is clarity that is liberating, for you cannot abandon desire,unless its causes and effects are clearly seen. I do not say that the same person is reborn.

It dies and dies for good. But its memories remain and their desires and fears. They supply the energy for a new person. The real takes no part in it, but makes it possible by giving it the light.

You are not a kindergarten student of spirituality, so you must cease to think and speak as if you are a phenomenal object.

You are the animating consciousness that provides sentience to the sentient being. You are the pure Awareness. You do not need to be liberated.

🌻 Silent Meditation 🌻

Meditation is a deliberate attempt to pierce into the higher states of consciousness and finally go beyond it. The art of meditation is the art of shifting the focus of attention to even subtler levels, without losing one's grip on the levels left behind.

The final stage of meditation is reached when the sense of identity goes beyond the 'I-am-so-and-so', beyond 'so-I-am', beyond 'I-am-the-witness-only', beyond 'there-is', beyond all ideas into the impersonally personal pure being. But you must be energetic when you take to meditation. It is definitely not a part-time occupation.

Limit your interests and activities to what is needed for you and your dependents' barest needs. Save all your energies and time for breaking the wall your mind had built around you. Believe me, you will not regret.

🌻. There are no others to help. 🌻

A rich man, when he hands over his entire fortune to his family, has not a coin left to give a beggar.

So is the wise man (Jnani) stripped of all his powers and possessions? Nothing, literally nothing can be said about him. He cannot help anybody, for he is everybody.

He is the poor and also his poverty, the thief and also his thievery. How can he be said to help when he is not apart?

Who thinks of himself as separate from the world, let him help the world. The only thing that can help is to wake up from the dream.

🌻. THE POWER OF A JNANI 🌻

Q: Can you influence the world by your attitude? By separating yourself from the world you lose all hope of helping it.

M: How can it be? All is myself -- can't I help myself? I do not identify myself with anybody in particular, for I am all -- both the particular and the universal.

Q: Can you then help me, the particular person?

M: But I do help you always -- from within. My self and your self are one. I know it, but you don't.
That is all the difference -- and it cannot last.

Q: And how do you help the entire world?

M: Gandhi is dead, yet his mind pervades the earth. The thought of a jnani pervades humanity and works ceaselessly for good. Being anonymous, coming from within, it is the more powerful and compelling. That is how the world improves -- the inner aiding and blessing the outer.

When a jnani dies, he is no more, in the same sense in which a river is no more when it merges in the sea, the name, the shape, are no more, but the water remains and becomes one with the ocean.

When a jnani joins the universal mind, all his goodness and wisdom become the heritage of humanity and uplift every human being.

🌻 "I AM" IS THE LAST OUTPOST OF ILLUSION..GET RID OF IT... 🌻

I want to take you to that ‘I am’ concept which is the last outpost of illusion and get rid of it. Understand the quality of these concepts.

There are various types of charity, but the greatest charity is the renunciation of the knowledge ‘I am’. 

When you give that up you escape birth and death. Waking state represents activity; deep sleep represents peace, quiet. 

When these two are present it means ‘I am’ is there, but you the Absolute are neither the waking state, deep sleep nor the ‘I amness’.

What else is there except the touch of ‘I am’? Why do you worry about discovering Maya and Brahma and all that? 

Understand what
this principle ‘I am’ is and you are finished. That ‘I am’ is in
bondage because of concepts

🌻. Free Yourself with Contradictions 🌻

What is supremely important is to be free from contradictions: the goal and the way must not be on different levels; life and light must not quarrel; behaviour must not betray belief. 

Call it honesty, integrity, wholeness; you must not go back, undo, uproot, abandon the conquered ground. 

Tenacity of purpose and honesty in pursuit will bring you to your goal.

🌻 Stop Identifying yourself with Body. Give attention to your ‘I’ consciousness 🌻

Whatever is called God or Self is because there is the beingness, the feeling that ‘I am’. 

That is the fundamental principle, the basis of all your knowledge, but you are identifying yourself with the body.

With greatest interest you get absorbed in your Self. By giving attention only to your ‘I’ consciousness you can reach it. 

Without giving attention to the body but to the sense ‘I am’.

There are levels in consciousness, but not in awareness. It is of one block, homogeneous. It's reflection in the mind is love and understanding. 

There are levels of clarity in love and intensity in love, but not in their source. The source is simple and single, but the gifts are infinite. 

Only do not take the gifts for the source. Realize yourself as the source and not the river; that is all.

🌻. Beingness goes into no-beingness. 🌻

The ‘I amness’ is pulsating ‘I am, I am’. The feeling of ‘I amness’ is there because of the essence of the food body and vital breath, when these are gone the pulsation of ‘I amness’ will not be there.

Because of the knowledge ‘I am’ we conduct all activities. In the morning when you wake up you get the first guaranty, that conviction of ‘I am’. 

Beingness goes into no-beingness. Then because you are not in a position to sustain or tolerate that ‘I amness’ you bestir yourself. You get up and move around here and there and the activity starts.

That attention of ‘I amness’ is always there in the waking state, but we are not alert to watch it. There is no other attention to be followed. Be attentive to that attention ‘I am’.

🌻 IT IS THE MIND THAT IMAGINES THAT IT DOES NOT KNOW AND THEN COMES TO KNOW..... 🌻

All talk of ‘gnana’ (knowledge) is a sign of ignorance. It is the mind that imagines that it does not know and then comes to know. 

Reality knows nothing of these contortions. Even the idea of God as the Creator is false. Do I owe my being to another being? Because ‘I am’ all ‘is’.

My teacher told me to hold on to the sense ‘I am’ tenaciously and not to swerve from it even for a moment. I did my best to follow his advice and in a comparatively short time I realized within myself the truth of his teaching. All I did was to remember his teaching, his face, his words constantly. 

This brought an end to the mind, in the stillness of the mind I saw myself as I am – unbound.

🌻 Beyond the mind there is no such thing as experience. 🌻
 
Experience is a dual state. You cannot talk of reality as an experience. Once this is understood, you will no longer look for being and becoming as separate and opposite. 

In reality they are one and inseparable, like roots and branches of the same tree. 

Both can only exist in the light of consciousness, which again arises in the wake of the sense ' I am'. 
This is the primary fact. If you miss this, you miss all.

🌻 CREATIVITY 🌻

Maruti (Nisargadatta Maharaj's original name) eventually took on the name Nisargadatta, meaning “naturally (nisarga) given (datta)” or, more loosely, “one dwelling in the natural state.” 

“Nis-arga” literally means “without parts,” and suggests the unfragmented, seamless, solid Awareness of a sage. 

As he later told a dear disciple and successor, Jean Dunn: “At one time I was composing poems. Poems used to flow out of me and, in this flow, I just added ‘Nisargadatta.’ 

I was reveling in composing poems until my Guru cautioned me, ‘You are enjoying composing these poems too much; give them up!’ 

What was he driving at? His objective was for me to merge in the Absolute instead of reveling in my beingness.”

🌻. MAYA ( ILLUSION ) IS VERY POWERFUL...... 🌻

Where has the experience of being alive come from which started all this trouble? The 'I' consciousness appeared spontaneously and the experiences started.

When you got yourself separated from the Absolute with this identity, 'I am', your demands started. In the Absolute there are no needs of any kind, not even the need to know Itself.

Brahman is the total truth; there is nothing else but Brahman. In That, the touch of beingness, 'I am', started, and then the separation and the sense of otherness appeared.

Coming down into this world from the Absolute is like the appearance of a dream. Along with that appearance comes the primary ignorance, the false notion that you are the body. That is illusion, maya. Maya is very powerful; she will get you completely wrapped up.

She will make you do all her tricks, and that light of yours, the beingness gets extinguished. But, although she might be your greatest enemy, if you propitiate her properly, she will turn around and lead you to the highest state.

First, know that you are the manifest consciousness, the 'I am'.

Then go to the source and find out where this 'I am' came from. When you have knowledge you see the 'I am' as all-pervasive, so long as that consciousness is there.

But then, this knowledge merges into no-knowledge, the Parabrahman, the witness of the consciousness. That has no 'I am'; that is you true eternal nature.

🌻 You can only know your self by being yourself 🌻

Whatever can be described cannot be your self, and what you are cannot be described. 

You can only know your self by being yourself without any attempt at self-definition and self-description.
 
Once you have understood that you are nothing perceivable or conceivable, that whatever appears in the field of consciousness cannot be your self, you will apply yourself to the eradication of all self-identification, as the only way that can take you to a deeper realisation of your self. You literally progress by rejection -- a veritable rocket.

To know that you are neither in the body nor in the mind, though aware of both, is already self-knowledge.

🌻 HOW AM I TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANY PROGRESS IN MY SPIRITUAL SEARCH? 🌻

One of the foreign visitors, who had been coming to Maharaj for quite some time, began quietly:

Perhaps I am speaking from a body-mind identity but there is a question, a problem, which has been troubling me for so long that I cannot keep it bottled up any longer. 

I have talked about it to some of the seekers here and I know that they too have the same problem. However, now I am not speaking for them but only for myself.

The problem is: How am I to know if there is any progress in my spiritual search?

Occasionally, particularly during meditation, I do have a glimpse of what I am searching for, but only a glimpse and that too only on rare occasions. How am I to know if I am progressing?

Maharaj : The problem apparently is about 'progress'. Now, who is to make the progress, and progress towards what? I have said this repeatedly and untiringly that you are the Conscious Presence, the animating consciousness which gives sentience to phenomenal objects; that you are not a phenomenal object, which is merely an appearance in the consciousness of those who perceive it. 

How can an 'appearance' make any 'progress' towards any objective? Now, instead of letting this basic apperception impregnate your very being, what you do is to accept it merely as an ideological thesis and ask the question. 

How can a conceptual appearance know whether it is making any conceptual progress towards its conceptual liberation?

Maharaj took a match box in his hand and held it up. He asked: Is this you? Of course not. 

Does it need time to understand this? Apperception of this fact is immediate, is it not? Why then should it take time to apperceive that you are not the phenomenal object called the body-mind?

Remember, you are the animating consciousness that gives sentience to the phenomenal objects.

Please understand, said Maharaj, that apperception is prior to the arrival of consciousness which is the basis of intellect. 

Apperception is not a matter of gradual practice. It can only happen by itself instantaneously — there are no stages in which deliberate progress is made. There is no 'one' to make any progress.

Perhaps, one wonders, could it be that the surest sign of 'progress' — if one cannot give up the concept — is a total lack of concern about 'progress' and an utter absence of anxiety about anything like 'liberation', a sort of' 'hollowness' in one's being, a kind of looseness, an unvolitional surrender to whatever might happen?

🌻 Realize your Independence and remain Happy. 🌻

The body and the mind are limited and therefore vulnerable; they need protection which gives rise to fear. 

As long as you identify yourself with them you are bound to suffer; realise your independence and remain happy. I tell you, this is the secret of happiness. 

To believe that you depend on things and people for happiness is due to ignorance of your true nature; to know that you need nothing to be happy, except self-knowledge, is wisdom.

🌻 The seed of spiritual life grows in secret silence and darkness until its appointed hour of activation on the divine plane of existence beyond consciousness, mind and body. 🌻

If you are examining deeply the real nature of your being behind the idea of "I am", your spiritual progress is central and inevitable. 

On this path of realization of the absolute state of being, it is ignorant to become emotionally disturbed about your rate of progress or whether the great realization will happen quickly or slowly, in the present body or some future body.

The seed of spiritual life grows in secret silence and darkness until its appointed hour of activation on the divine plane of existence beyond consciousness, mind and body. 

It is enough for consciousness to be ever looking into its own center of "I am" with increasing detachment and right order of external life without adding to the troubles and problems that come with useless desires and fears.

To be ever fretfully exercising mental imagination and physical exertions toward the ultimate state of being is a misunderstanding in consciousness of going away from central awareness of being to try to get the result of it from outside in the mind and body. 

You are not your mind or body, so why do you look so hard to your mind or body to give you the self-realization you need? 

Conscious attention must look within the very core of itself and go through the ultimate gateway of "I am"...

🌹 Seeds Of Consciousness - 149 🌹
✍️  Nisargadatta Maharaj 
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj

🌻 The intensity of your meditation should be such that you become totally one with the ‘I am’. 🌻

Just observe the tremendous potential of the ‘I am’ it has kept the whole world running, the entire manifestation has come from it, its perpetual stubbornness is astonishing. 
To be free from it you have to understand it in its utmost purity and then meditate on it for a reasonable amount of time. 
The intensity of your meditation should be such that you become totally one with the ‘I am’. 
Then a moment will come when it merges into itself and you go beyond to your true being, which is the Absolute or the ‘Parabrahman’.

🌻 What you seek is so near you, that there is no place for 'a way.' 🌻

The name and form of the spiritually enlightened saint experiences the pangs and sorrows of life, but not their sting. 

He is neither moved nor perturbed by the pleasures and pains, nor the profits and losses of the world. He is thus in a position to direct others. His behaviour is guided exclusively by the sense of justice.

Don't look for quick results, there may be none within your noticing.

Unknown to you, your psyche will undergo a change, there will be more clarity in your thinking and feeling, purity in your behaviour. You need not aim at these - you will witness the change all the same.

To know that you are neither body nor mind, watch yourself steadily and live unaffected by your body and mind, completely aloof, as if you were dead.

🌻 PEACE , POWER , HAPPINESS - theses are UNIVERSAL. Not personal states. 🌻

It is just like your tape-recorder. It records, it reproduces - all by itself. You only listen. 

Similarly, I watch all that happens, including my talking to you. It is not me who talks, the words appear in my mind and then I hear them said.

How can a person limited in time and space, a mere body-mind, a gasp of pain between birth and death, be happy? The very conditions of its arising make happiness impossible. 

Peace, power, happiness - theses are never personal states; nobody can say ‘my peace,’ ‘my power’ - because ‘mine’ implies exclusivity, which is fragile and insecure.

It is in the nature of truth or love, cosmic consciousness, to express itself, to affirm itself, to overcome difficulties. 

Once you've understood that the world is love in action, consciousness or love in action, you will look at it quite differently. But first your attitude to suffering must change. Suffering is primarily a call for attention, which itself is a movement of love. 

More than happiness, love wants growth, the widening and deepening of awareness and consciousness and being. Whatever prevents that becomes a cause of pain, and love does not shirk from pain.

🌻 You are the all-pervading, eternal and infinitely creative awareness - consciousness. 🌻

I don’t think you really understand the purpose of my dialogues here. I don’t say things simply to convince people that they are true. 

I am not speaking about these matters so that people can build up a philosophy that can be rationally defended, and which is free of all contradictions. When I speak my words, I am not speaking to your mind at all. I am directing my words directly at consciousness.

I am planting my words in your consciousness. If you disturb the planting process by arguing about the meaning of the words, they won’t take root there. 

Once my words have been planted in consciousness, they will sprout, they will grow, and at the appropriate moment they will bear fruit. It’s nothing to do with you. 

All this will happen by itself. However, if you think about the words too much or dispute their meaning, you will postpone the moment of their fruition. Enough talking. Be quiet and let the words do their work!

To take appearance for reality is a grievous sin and the cause of all calamities. You are the all-pervading, eternal and infinitely creative awareness - consciousness. All else is local and temporary. Don’t forget what you are.

All this is not as easy as it sounds it is hard work, your consistency and perseverance are keys to you success. 

Separate the ‘I am’ from ‘I am this’ or’ I am that’ or ‘I am so and so’ all these are add-ons and have been loaded onto you by others and society. 

All these appendages on the ‘I am’ maybe of some value in your day to day living but if your goal or quest is for eternity, then they are impediments. 

You will have to separate them from the ‘I am’ and just keep in mind your sense of ‘presence’ or the feeling ‘I am’.

🌻 4. Only the ‘I am’ is certain, it’s impersonal, all knowledge stems from it, it’s the root, hold on to it and let all else go. 🌻

Right from the day you came know that ‘you are’ to this day you still know that ‘you are’. 

All add-ons have come and gone are transient but the fundamental ‘I am’ has remained unchanged and is the only certainty. 

This ‘I am’ is impersonal, it’s common to everybody and wordless, the moment you came know that ‘you are’ you did not know any words or language, which came later. 

Based on this non-verbal ‘I am’ you could later on say verbally ‘I am’ in whatever language you were taught. From this small minuscule ‘I am’ further knowledge grew leaps and bounds to gigantic proportions. 

So all knowledge stems from the ‘I am’, it is very fundamental, the base, the origin, the root of everything. You have to hold on to this ‘I am’ and let everything else go.

🌻 5. You are sure of the ‘I am’, it’s the totality of being, remember ‘I am’ and it’s enough to heal your mind and take you beyond. 🌻

You are definitely sure that ‘you are’ only then everything else is! Not before that. Since the ‘I am’ lies at the very base of everything and is common to all, does it not form the totality of being? 

Throwing aside everything, come back to this sense of ‘presence’ or ‘being’ in all its purity and it would heal your mind. 

The use of the word ‘heal’ is very important as it clearly suggests that the mind or whatever has been loaded on the ‘I am’ afterwards is a pain an illness that needs to be cured. 

There is also here a hint towards something that is beyond the ‘I am’.

Circumstances, relationships, people, ideas and so forth everything else has been changing and is inferential but the ‘I am’ remained and has stood throughout this turbulence.

Use your memory to go back in time to the stage when you just came to know that ‘you are’ without words. 

Did you have a sense of time then? Did you know who you are or who are your parents? Did you know where you were geographically located? 

You knew none of these, it was a timeless presence, you did of course know space which came with the ‘I am’ but not time and this timeless presence applies to all. 

Come back to this timeless and wordless ‘I am’ again and again.

🌻 10. Immortality is freedom from the feeling ‘I am’, to have that freedom remain in the sense ‘I am’, its simple, its crude, yet it works! 🌻

The feeling ‘I am’ is dormant at birth, it appears spontaneously say around the age of three. It is the essence of the five elements that make up the body or the food body. 

The body is a limitation and as long as the ‘I am’ identifies itself with the body there is no chance of freedom and death is certain. 

Eternity or immortality is possible only when you are free from the ‘I am’. For this freedom to accrue you have to be after the ‘I am’, understand it, abide in it and transcend it. 

Judging from the enormous amount of spiritual literature available the understanding, abidance and transcendence of the ‘I am’ appears to be a too simple and crude ‘Sadhana’ or practice, yet it works!

The feeling ‘I am’ very clearly qualifies as the port of entry or doorway through which you came into this world and thus it also qualifies as the way out. 

And, there is no other way out! Stay at it and you shall see that this door is always open it was never closed. 

Unless you revert and stay in the ‘I am’ for a sufficiently long time you won’t come to know this fact.

There definitely was a substratum on which this knowledge ‘I am’ arose, it was a wordless feeling.

🌻 14. The ‘I am’ is the permanent link in the succession of events called life, be at the link ‘I am’ only and go beyond it. 🌻

Conception, birth and infancy, these are the beginnings of your being where the ‘I am’ lies dormant. Then is the spontaneous appearance of the non-verbal feeling ‘I am’ around say three years of age. 

On this foundation of the knowledge ‘I am’ is built a large structure of words, ideas and concepts and very soon it is ‘I am so and so’ and so forth. 

The pure ‘I am’ is contaminated and it piles on right from childhood to old age, but in all the succession of events, the ‘I am’ lies at the base and has always been there. 

The ‘I am’ is an unbroken link throughout your life, so come back to it, abide there and try to transcend it, for there lies your True being.

When the sense or feeling ‘I am’ appeared on you it duped you into believing that you are the body and later on you are so and so. 

It strengthened the illusion all the more as time went by and thus began all the turmoil and suffering, in this sense it is your foe. 

But now the Guru tells you to come back to the ‘I am’, understand it, stay there, make friends with it or rather make it your guide, God or Guru. 

Doing so the ‘I am’ shall help you break the illusion and it will itself lead you to the source.

🌻 17. The beginning and the end of knowledge is the ‘I am’, be attentive to the ‘I am’, once you understand it, you are apart from It. 🌻

Whatever maybe the volume of knowledge it has to begin with the primary knowledge or concept ‘I am’. 

The ‘I am’ is the one, and then two, three, four and so forth the structural labyrinth of knowledge builds. 

You have to revert, retrace out the steps in the maze and when you do so correctly you will end up at the ‘I am’. Give all your attention to this ‘I am’, by and by you shall come to understand it and all its implications as well. 

The clearer is your understanding of the ‘I am’ the more distinctly apart you are from it.

🌻 18. You must meditate on the ‘I am’ without holding on to the body-mind, the ‘I am’ is the first ignorance, persist on it and you will go beyond it. 🌻

Bring all your attention to the ‘I am’, meditate on it; try to do it by keeping the body-mind totally aside. 

In the beginning the body-mind would resist this reversion but with practice they would automatically not interfere. 

Remember, this ‘I am’ has tricked you into believing the unreal so you may call it the first ignorance.

You have to be after this ‘I am’ constantly only then you can go beyond it, otherwise it will continue playing games with you.

🌻 19. Your Guru, your God, is the ‘I am’, with its coming came duality and all activity, stay on the ‘I am’, you are before the ‘I am’ appeared. 🌻

The entire process of perception and all activity is based on duality: the subject and the object, the observer and the observed, the doer and the done.

It is only after the appearance of ‘I am’ that all duality and activity began, not before that, so at the root lies the ‘I am’ that triggered everything. 

Trace out the ‘I am’ and stay on it, only then will you realize that you are before the ‘I am’ appeared.

Stay at this out post, stabilize yourself over there in the ‘I am’, and when you do so you are no more an individual.

The knowledge ‘I am’ is the creator of everything, it likes to assert itself again and again, it is the sheer love of oneself for existence. 

It was inherent in your parents and their parents and so on. It was the ‘I am’ in your parents that was attracted towards itself that lead to your procreation and the ‘I am’ therein. 

The ‘I am’ is the birth principle abounding in nature and perpetuating itself all over. Investigate or try to  find out how the ‘I am’ came about on you and it will not only lead you but get you stabilized in the Absolute.

Clearly you can envisage two steps in the process of self-discovery, the first one being the understanding of the knowledge ‘I am’ and abiding in it. 

You must develop the strong conviction that ‘you are’ and stay there. What would happen then? 

By and by as you abide in the ‘I am’ the second step would be to realize that you stand apart from the ‘I am’, you are free from it! You are not the ‘I am’ but its witness. 

Thus abidance in the ‘I am’ and its transcendence is the key to the whole ‘Sadhana’ (practice).

Whatever has added-on to the basic and fundamental knowledge ‘I am’ has destroyed its purity. 

Shred aside everything added-on and only remember the ‘I am’ in all its purity. You have to really get after it and for that you have to reside in it, dwell on it at all times. 

In the process you will realize that the ‘I am’ is dependant and destructible and hence unreal, for the real is independent and indestructible.

There was that moment and you knew that ‘you are’ and thenceforth the feeling ‘I am’ went on getting strengthened. 

‘I am so and so’ got embedded into you and the rest of the activities of your life followed. 

From this, is it not conclusive that the ‘I am’ has created your world and not the other way around? 

This ‘I am’ has dawned on you and you stand apart from it just as a witness with no participation in any of its activities whatsoever.

🌻  33. When this concept ‘I am’ departs there would be no memory left that ‘I was’ and ‘I had’ those experiences, the very memory will be erased.  🌻

The knowledge ‘I am’ is the very seed of memory and all information functions through it, it forms the basis of the mind. It is bound to tire out and hence there is sleep otherwise you would die if you don’t sleep. 

But sleep is not the complete departure of the ‘I am’ it’s only held in abeyance and after sleep it gets refreshed and starts its activity again maintaining the continuity. 

No wonder if your name is called aloud in sleep you wake up and respond saying ‘that’s me’! Physical death is the total departure of the ‘I am’ and nothing is retained. 

For the ‘Realized One’ who has transcended the ‘I am’, memory and the ‘I am’ are available to him he may or may not use them, they are not ‘lodged’ in him anymore. Only the ‘Realized One’ can understand this state.

As you abide in the ‘I am’ for a longer time you shall also realize the state of ‘I am not’ or there would be a state of ‘knowing’ and ‘not-knowing’. Both these states are states of consciousness in its purity; they are the very beginnings of duality. 

The very arrival of the concept ‘I am’ implies the ‘I am not’ hidden in it or ‘knowing’ has ‘not-knowing’ implied in it, they are opposites, they are pairs and always go together and are impossible to separate. 

But you are the Absolute which transcends both of them; you are a witness to both these states, they have only appeared on you, they never belonged to you and are illusory.

Why are they unreal? Because they are interdependent, constantly changing and the real is not dependant and never changes.

🌹   Seeds Of Consciousness - 196   🌹
✍️ Nisargadatta Maharaj 

Nisargadatta Gita 
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj


🌻 44. Abide in the knowledge ‘I am’ without identifying with the body, how did you function before the arrival of the knowledge ‘I am’? 🌻 

In order to understand this you would have to revert again, apply your mind and just try to recollect that moment when you came to know that ‘you are’. 

This occurred somewhere around the age of three, but before that you were still functioning without any problem from conception to the arrival of ‘I am’. 

What about things prior to conception? Have you ever given any thought to that? 

You had no requirements whatsoever, even after the arrival of the ‘I am’ in its nascent nonverbal state there were no problems. 

During that period of the word free ‘I am’ you were not aware of the body at all, that is where you have to come back and reside.

Nisargadatta Gita 
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj

🌻 45. The state of being, that is the message ‘I am’, without words, is common to all, change begins only with the mind-flow. 🌻

That stage when the message ‘I am’ had just arrived and was word free is common to all. 

Everybody goes through this period, the non-verbal state, only knowing that ‘you are’ or ‘I am’. In this stage there only exists the opposite ‘you are not’ or ‘I am not’. Your movements from ‘I am’ to ‘I am not’ or vice-versa occur quite spontaneously with no volition at all. 

Changes begin as soon you are taught words or language and very soon the concepts take over, your verbal life or the mind flow begins.

Along with these come the three states of being awake, dreaming or deep sleep and you believe that you are an individual with a body and mind functioning in this world. 

Now, you meet the Guru and he tells you to rediscover this long lost wordless, nascent ‘I am’. It is still there and you have to relive it – that is the ‘Sadhana’ (the Practice).

Nisargadatta Gita
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj


🌻 46. The belief in the ‘I am’ to be something as a body, as an individual is the cause of all fear, in the absence of the ‘I am’, who is to fear what? 🌻


This belief that ‘I am so and so’ with a mind and body, an individual living in this world and society is the cause of all fear.

Fears are many and diverse, there is fear of death, loss of wealth, loss of near and dear ones, then there is fear of illhealth, coming to disrepute and the many, many small ones that occur and change from moment to moment.

But, for the one who has realized that the ‘I am’ itself is false and since all fears are based on the ‘I am’, there is no fear anymore.

Quite obviously, if there is no individual, who is to fear what?

✍️ Nisargadatta Maharaj 

Nisargadatta Gita 
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj

🌻 47. Try to stabilize in the primary concept ‘I am’ in order to lose that and be free from all other concepts, in understating the unreality of the ‘I am’ you are totally free. 🌻 

You are in turmoil, you are in despair, you are afraid, you are troubled with all this mess that you see around yourself, you seek freedom from all this. 

You meet the Guru, in whatever form, human or his words recorded in books and he explains to you all about the ‘I am’ and its implications. 

Once he has done that, it is now up to you to do as he says. Come down to the primary concept ‘I am’, abide in it and understand its unreality and be totally free. 

Always bear in mind that whatever the Guru says is from his own experience and not hearsay.

🌹 Seeds Of Consciousness - 199 🌹
✍️ Nisargadatta Maharaj

Nisargadatta Gita
📚. Prasad Bharadwaj

🌻 48. Sitting quietly, being one with the knowledge ‘I am’, you would lose all concern with the world, then the ‘I am’ would also go, leaving you as the Absolute. 🌻

*You have gone so far away from the primary ‘I am’ that you find it almost impossible to extradite yourself from the conceptual jungle that you are trapped in. Most of us are so deeply enmeshed in this world that there is no time to even think of all this.Only those who are sensitive and observant or have faced a crisis in life makes one realize the futility of it all. Thus begins the quest of your true identity and the meaning of life.The Guru’s advice is very simple, you have to first understand the ‘I am’ as the primary concept and root of all the trouble. Then you have to sit quietly and become one with knowledge ‘I am’, as you do so you would lose all concern with the world. Then, quite spontaneously, if you have been earnest in your abidance, the ‘I am’ would drop off leaving you free as the Absolute.

🌻 49. Putting aside everything, stabilize in the ‘I am’ - as you continue with this practice – in the process you will transcend the ‘I am’. 🌻

Just throw aside everything that does not go with the ‘I am’, get your self firmly established there.Again and again, repeatedly and tirelessly you have to continue with the practice of getting stabilized in the ‘I am’.Then, at some moment, when the God ‘I am’ is pleased with you, he will release his stranglehold and you would transcend it and become the Absolute.
