"The very first step in understanding what this is all about is giving up the concept of an active, volitional 'I' as a separate entity and accepting the passive role of perceiving and functioning as a process." - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Eternal peace


Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj:

If you really want eternal peace, don't bother about anybody else, worry about your own self, investigate only your own self.

Who is going to give you eternal peace? It is only that sun, that "I Am". If you embrace that self-effulgent sun everything else will go, but you will prevail eternally.

सर्वभूताधिवासं यद्भूतेषु च वसत्यपि।
सर्वानुग्राहकत्वेन तद्स्म्यहं वासुदेवः॥

That in whom reside all beings and who resides in all beings,
who is the giver of grace to all, the Supreme Soul of the universe, the limitless being:
I AM THAT. -- Amritabindu Upanishad
