Nisargadatta_Gita

I found the talks with Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj to be highly penetrating and many things that were usually vague became quite clear. It was just like the clouds clearing away leaving a perfectly blue spotless sky. After ‘I Am That’ by Maurice Frydman nine more books followed that covered almost all the talks, these books were: 1. Edited by Jean Dunn: Seeds of Consciousness, Prior to Consciousness and Consciousness and the Absolute. 2. Edited by Robert Powell: The Experience of Nothingness, The Nectar of Immortality and The Ultimate Medicine. 3. Edited Maria Jory: Beyond Freedom 4. E-book,Created by Vijay Deshpande and edited by me: I am Unborn. 5. Mark West’s: Gleanings from Nisargadatta. Throughout all these books the ‘I am’ theme was highly pre-dominant, so in the first phase I began compiling all the ‘I am’ quotes and this took quite some time. In all, these quotes were 572 in number of which 521 are available as an e-book at: http://www.scribd.com/doc/961481/I-AM-The-complete-I-AM-quotes-of-Sri- Nisargadatta-Maharaj The last 51 from Mark West’s book I could manage to procure very late but they have been included when I began preparing the text of ‘The Nisargadatta Gita’.

64. Your fall started with the appearance

of ‘I am’, then you blundered by

embracing the body as ‘I am’, all that

gathered thereafter is unreal.

The very appearance of ‘I am’ was the first

deception, more deception followed when the ‘I

am’ embraced the body. On this deceptive

foundation you have blundered and built this

mansion of being an individual living in this world.

Your very base, the ‘I am’ is false or unreal, so

how can anything that followed thereafter be real?

Just see how you have been tricked into believing

something that is totally unreal.

65. This is no joke, but you can become

Parabrahman right now! You are

Parabrahman right now! Just focus your

attention on the ‘I am’.

The concept of being born as an individual with a

body and mind has been so strongly hammered

away into you that you simply refuse to accept
