Desire is the memory of pleasure and fear is the memory of pain. Both make the mind restless. (...) - Nisargadatta Maharaj

(...) In pure being consciousness arises; in consciousness the world appears and disappears. All there is is me, all there is is mine. Before all beginnings, after all endings – I am. All has its being in me, in the “I am,” which shines in every living being. (...).

When I say I am free, I merely state a fact. If you are an adult, you are free from infancy. I am free from all description and identification. (…).

Be fully aware of your own being and you will be in bliss consciously. Because you take your mind off yourself and make it dwell on what you are not, you lose your sense of well-being, of being well. (…) True happiness is spontaneous and effortless. (..)
