My guru revealed to me, while I was in deep meditation - Nectar of Immortality

 

My approach is simple and straightforward. Out of the Absolute non-being state, the beingness together with the manifest world emerged before me. How did this happen? My guru revealed to me, while I was in deep meditation, how and to what causes the manifest world of forms was created.

A jnani is not born and he does not die - The Nectar of Immortality

 

A jnani is not born and he does not die. But when the body of a jnani drops off, people around him may weep in sorrow, because they identify with their bodies. They therefore consider a jnani to be an embodied person, which, however, he is not.

The transcendence of the knowledge "I am" - The Nectar of Immortality

 

With the transcendence of the knowledge ‘I am’, the Absolute prevails. The state is called ‘Parabrahman’, while the knowledge ‘I am’ is termed Brahman. This knowledge ‘I am’ or the beingness is illusion only. Therefore, when Brahman is transcended, only the ‘Parabrahman’ is, in which there is not even a trace of the knowledge ‘I am’.

There is no otherness at all to make love to - The Nectar of Immortality

 

There is no otherness at all to make love to. Only the "love to be" has sprouted. To sustain the "love to be" state, you undergo a lot of difficulties and adversities. Just to keep that state pleased and satisfied, you involve yourself in so many activities.

Avadhoota Gita - Traditional Vedanta Books - Nisargadatta Maharaj

Avadhuta Gita is a Hindu text based on the principles of Advaita Vedanta (nondualism). It has been dated to approximately the 9th or 10th century. The singer of the Avadhuta Gita is Dattatreya, an Avadhuta, and according to the Nath Sampradaya, the work was heard and transcribed by two of Dattatreya's disciples—Swami and Kartika. The Nath tradition is a heterodox siddha tradition containing many sub-sects. It was founded by Matsyendranath and further developed by Gorakshanath. The Inchegeri Sampradaya, also known as Nimbargi Sampradaya, is a lineage of Hindu Navnath from Maharashtra which was started by Shri Bhausaheb Maharaj and has become well-known throughout the western world due to the popularity of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj.

The Avadhuta Gita is a small book of only eight chapters and is written in spirited Sanskrit verse, which breathes the atmosphere of the highest experience of Brahman. It goes into no philosophical argument to prove oneness of reality, but is content to make the most startling statements, leaving the seeker of truth to imbibe them and be lifted from illusion into the blazing light of Knowledge (jnana).
