Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
October 1, 1980.
With the mind, you will never understand. You are not the mind, nor the words, nor the meaning of words. I expound the knowledge of the Self but you accept it as the knowledge of your body.
I am completely detached from the body and the consciousness which is within the body. Nevertheless, because of the disease, the unbearable suffering of the body is being experienced through the consciousness. It is unbearable but since I am detached from both the body and the consciousness, I am able to speak to you. It is something like the fan - the breeze is there and the sound is also there. In the same way the vital breath is there and the sound is also emanating, but all this happening is unbearable .. the suffering has to be endured.
