Verzameling kernachtige uitspraken van de hedendaagse Advaita-filosoof, cirkelend rond het thema ''ik ben''.

The Ultimate Medicine is not for those who like their spirituality watered down, but for serious students searching for awareness. Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj (1897-1981) lived and taught in a small apartment in the slums of Bombay. A realized master of the Tantric Nath lineage, he supported himself and his family by selling cheap goods in a small booth on the streets outside his tenement for many years. His life exemplified the concept of absolute nonduality of being. In this volume, Maharaj shares the highest truth of nonduality in his own unique way. His teaching style is abrupt, provocative, and immensely profound, cutting to the core and wasting little effort on inessentials. His terse but potent sayings are known for their ability to trigger shifts in consciousness, just by hearing or reading them."The point is that man freed from his fetters is morality personified. Such a man therefore does not need any moralistic injunctions in order to live righteously. Free a man from his bondage and thereafter everything else will take care of itself. On the other hand, man in his unredeemed state cannot possibly live morally, no matter what moral teaching he is given. It is an intrinsic impossibility, for his very foundation is immorality. That is, he lives a lie, a basic contradiction: functioning in all his relationships as the separate entity he believes himself to be, whereas in reality no such separation exists. His every action therefore does violence to other ''selves'' and other ''creatures,'' which are only manifestations of the unitary consciousness. So Society had to invent some restraints in order to protect itself from its own worst excesses and thereby maintain some kind of status quo. The resulting arbitrary rules, which vary with place and time and therefore are purely relative, it calls ''morality,'' and by upholding this man-invented ''idea'' as the highest good–oftentimes sanctioned by religious ''revelation'' and scriptures–society has provided man with one more excuse to disregard the quest for liberation or relegate it to a fairly low priority in his scheme of things."

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj (1897-1981), a revered master of the Tantric Nath Lineage, is an inspiring example of an ordinary family man who attained complete realization of the Infinte. Living the absolute nonduality of Being in every moment, he taught that true freedom is a possiblity open to everyone of us. These discourses are about Transcendence. The massage is clear: Return to what you were before before your so-called birth. Be in that eternity, a state of wholeness. It is changeless reality from which all change has sprung. Maharaj`s wisdom is truely partaking of the Gods, because it restores us to our original pristine and blissful condition, the rediscovery of our Source.

His words carry a rare potency that can jolt the listener or reader into a profound sense of awareness, which at the same time signifies true freedom-the freedom from all fear and mental suffering. In this volume, Nisargadatta clearly demonstrates that logic and spirituality do not necessarily stand in opposition to one another.

Los dialogos que forman este libro son una recopilacion de la intemporal ensenanza de uno de los sabios mas grandes de la India. Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj no propuso ninguna religion ni tampoco ideologia alguna, limitandose a desvelar suavemente el misterio del Ser, con su mensaje a la vez sencillo, directo y sublime. La unica preocupacion de Nisargadatta era acabar con el sufrimiento humano y su mision fue guiar al individuo hacia la comprension de su verdadera naturaleza: el Ser todo-abarcante y todo-penetrante, eterna bienaventuranza y felicidad sin limites, de la cual surge todo cuanto existe.

Conversaciones con Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj del 1 de enero de 1979 al 15 de julio de 1980, en las que nos enseña que el “yo soy” contiene el mundo entero. ”Todos los caminos conducen a la irrealidad. Los caminos son creaciones dentro del ámbito del conocimiento. Por consiguiente, los caminos y los movimientos no pueden transportarle a la Realidad, porque su función es enredarle en la dimensión del conocimiento, mientras que la Realidad es anterior a él”.

Todo lo que usted es, ese "usted es" -la consciencia, el atman, o el "yo" en usted- no es otro que Dios. Todos los nombres y títulos de otros dioses tienen sólo significado para usted. Usted es el conocimiento "yo soy". Así pues, si quiere adorar algo, adore a ese conocimiento "yo soy". Sea devoto exclusivamente de ese "yo soy". Cuando lo haga, todos los demás rituales devendrán redundantes, inútiles. Finalmente, cuando realiza que todo es inútil, que todo es Brahman, significa que usted está en el nivel Parabrahman, el nivel absoluto. Cuando esté en ese nivel, lo verá todo como inútil, incluyendo el Brahman, porque el Brahman también se reduce a la ilusión.

In dialogen met bezoekers deelt de Indiase wijze (1897-1981) zijn inzichten over het wezenlijke ''ik'' van de mens en de weg naar zelfrealisatie mee.

Pendant plus de quarante ans Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj a guidé et inspiré tous ceux qui sont venus à lui ; doux, affectueux, patient ou abrupt, coupant, impatient selon les circonstances du moment, il a reçu des personnes en quête spirituelle venues du monde entier. Jusqu''à la fin, inlassablement, il dit et redit de ne pas se cramponner à tout ce que nous avons lu ou entendu, de chercher par nous-mêmes, de nous tourner vers l''intérieur ; d''être dans le " je suis " vrai, qui est aussi Conscience et Amour. Son style répétitif fait partie de sa sagesse et de son talent d''instructeur. Ces tout derniers entretiens représentent le meilleur de ce qu''il avait à nous offrir, la quintessence de sa sagesse. Conscience et Absolu est l''enseigne ultime de Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj ( 1897-1981), one of the most important spiritual preceptors of the twentieth century, lived and taught in a small apartment in the slums of Bombay, India. A realized master of the Tantric Nath Lineage, Maharaj had a wife and four children. For many years, he supported himself and his family by selling cheap goods in a small booth on the streets outside his tenement. His life was a telling parable of the absolute non duality of being. The profound yet simple words of this extraordinary teacher are designed to jolt us into awareness of our original nature. Like the Zen masters of Old, Nisargadatta s style is abrupt, provocative, and immensely profound cutting to the core and wasting little effort on the trigger shifts in consciousness, just by gearing, or even reading them. A study stream of Indians and Westerners, those fortunate enough to discover Maharaj during his lifetime, came to sit at his feet in the small loft where he received visitors. In the radition of the sage Ramana Maharishi,he shared the highest Truth of non duality in his own unique way, from the depths of his own realization. In this volume Nisargadatta provides advanced instructions for spiritual aspirants. The Ultimate Medicine is not for those who like their spirituality watered down, but for serious students who will find herein powerful antidotes to unawareness.
