Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
September 15, 1980.
What is this knowingness? It is the stamp or registration of the booking "I Am". You are booking a flat which is under construction but where is the flat? It is only the booking. Similarly this "I Am" is only booking, it represents your Absolute state.
Receding only means to go within, your normal inclination is to come out through the five senses and see the world. Now reverse; I am not the body, I am not the mind, I am not the senses; now you are stabilized in consciousness. After stabilizing in consciousness all further things will happen automatically. You expand into the manifest. I was, I am, I shall be in that original state before the "I Amness" came.
Why is it that the terrible name of this disease has no effect on me? For the simple reason that what I am has nothing to do with that of which the disease is just a name.
