All you need is already within you, only you must approach your self with reverence and love. Self-condemnation and self-disgust are grievous errors.… - Nisargadatta Maharaj

All you need is already within you, only you must approach yourself with reverence and love. Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors . . .

All I plead with you is this: make love of your self perfect

Watch your thoughts and watch yourself watching the thoughts. The state of freedom from all thoughts will happen suddenly and by the bliss of it you shall recognize it.

The light which you see outside arises from your own light. The light of the sun and the moon cannot be compared to the light of your Self.

Merely assuaging fears and satisfying desires will not remove this sense of emptiness you are trying to escape from; only self-knowledge can help you.
