No such thing as realization

Nisargadatta: - Your expectation of something unique and dramatic, of some wonderful explosion, is merely hindering and delaying your self-realisation. - Liberation is never of the person, it is always from the person. - There is no ‘me’ or ‘you’ to seek enlightenment, indeed there is no such thing as ‘enlightenment’. - Actually no one is realized, there is only pure knowledge. - There is no entity that needs enlightenment. There is no such thing as enlightenment! - And indeed, so long as there is an entity seeking liberation, he will never find it. - Of course, there can be no causal connection between practice and wisdom. - What is born is only a concept. There is no entity to be freed. THIS MEANS THAT: There is no realized person in opposite to an unrealized person. Just understand in all dimensions about your true nature - what you are. That's all you can do. There is no supernatural state beyond this understanding. That any such experience is your imagination; your problem. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT: Even though such experiences are there, please don't go that way. Unrealized person goes through some special door and become realized. Doing all types of acrobatics, stretches, and rituals to get realized. Imagining all types of fancy stories to be real and you get realized. Not enough to understand with mind, you have to understand with your soul.

About Nisargadatta Maharaj

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj was an Indian spiritual teacher and philosopher of Advaita (Nondualism), and a Guru, belonging to the Navnath Sampradaya. Sri Nisargadatta, with his direct and minimalistic explanation of non-dualism, is considered the most famous teacher of Advaita since Ramana Maharshi. In 1973, the publication of his most famous and widely-translated book, "I AM THAT", an English translation of his talks in Marathi by Maurice Frydman, brought him worldwide recognition and followers.

According to Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, the purpose of spirituality is simply to know who you are. His discussions are not for academic scholars. He is a rebellious spirit, abrupt in his style of discussion, provocative, and immensely profound, cutting to the core and wasting little effort on inessentials. He talked about the 'direct way' of knowing the Final Reality, in which one becomes aware of one's original nature through mental discrimination, breaking the mind's false identification with the ego, knowing that "You are already That".
