"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

Paramatman: Your Real Nature

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
October 8, 1980.

There is no other thing like paramAtman except "I Love". In that ecstasy who is going to look at the body? Body becomes irrelevant. How many titles have been given to it, but what is it .. only that love for Self. Always, forever, your knowingness has been moving about, but you have limited it to your own body, and therefore you are killing it. ParamAtman is not mAyA, it is your real nature.

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
