Nisargadatta Maharaj

When you meditate on the knowledge I am, which is the beginning of knowledge?

How can there be any questions?

It is not with the body identification that you should sit for meditation.

It is the knowledge I am.

that is meditating on itself.

You should identify yourself only with this indwelling knowledge, I am.

Sit in meditation by identifying with the I am.

Dwell only on the I am.

Forget about all physical disciplines in this connection and just be with the knowledge I am.

When you are established in this, there are no thoughts or words.

And on realizing its falsehood, it disappears and merges into eternity.

Along with the knowledge I am, appears space and the world.

I pondered only on that.

My original state is to be in that state where there is no I am.

The I am in body form can reach the highest state only if you understand, accept it and dwell there.

The body identity cannot get this knowledge.

The knowledge I am must get this knowledge.

When knowledge abides in knowledge, there is transcendence of knowledge.

The I am has great potency.

The entire manifestation has come from it.
