Nisargadatta Maharaj - The dream



 "Q: When did the dream begin?

M: It appears to be beginningless, but in fact it is only now.
From moment to moment you are renewing it.
Once you have seen that you are dreaming, you shall wake up.
But you do not see, because you want the dream to continue.
A day will come when you will long for the ending of the dream,
with all your heart and mind, and be willing to pay any price;
the price will be dispassion and detachment, the loss of interest in the dream itself.

Q: How helpless I am.

As long as the dream of existence lasts, I want it to continue.
As long as I want it to continue, it will last.

M: Wanting it to continue is not inevitable.
See clearly your condition, your very clarity will release you."
