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’.

is the first and the last thing that brought you in
this world and now can take you out of it. Before
anything else could be, words, thoughts or feelings
the ‘I am’ had to be there.
101. The indwelling principle ‘I am’ is
common to all and has no attributes; it is
the principle of the whole functioning.
The knowledge ‘I am’ that has dawned on you is
indeed the indwelling principle through which you
function. Just ponder; can anything be if ‘you’ are
not there? Your ‘being’ is of great importance for
everything else to be. Prior to the arrival of this
knowledge ‘I am’ did you know anything? Or
during deep sleep when the ‘I am’ is held in
abeyance do you know anything? This indwelling
principle ‘I am’ does not belong to any particular
individual but is common to all and has no
attributes at all.
102. Identify yourself with the highest
principle in you which is the knowledge
‘I am’. This will elevate you to the status
of ‘Brihaspati’ – the guru of gods.
Become completely one with the indwelling
knowledge ‘I am’, it is the highest possible
