Nisargadatta Maharaj - That Beingness that you are



THAT ABOUT WHICH NOTHING CAN BE SAID,
I HAVE SAID...

Whatever you think you have got as an identity, have you acquired it
by effort or intention? Is there anything you have really got?
No. This body, this consciousness, has come spontaneously, so sleep comes when it likes, even waking and sleep are not in your control.
What is yours?
Who has this knowledge of the Self by his own effort?
This pseudo entity thinks that it is he who is active and doing.
I am talking to you now as consciousness. Can any one of you give me an indication of that knowledge, that beingness that you are?

Q. Consciousness thanks consciousness over and over again.

M. That about which nothing can be said, I have said. Accept that
drop, taste it and swallow it.

Hear this: God can only exist in the heart of man, not elsewhere.
You identify with the body and limit yourself, and yet, remember, do not neglect this body, this is the house of God, take care of it. Only in this body can God be realized.
It is only for an analytic understanding that God, your body, your
Self, have been divided, but it is one Self, each is intimately related.
