Guest guest Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 Questioner: Don’t you have desires and fears any more? Maharaj: My destiny was to be born a simple man, a commoner, a humble tradesman, with little of formal education. My life was the common kind, with common desires and fears. When, through my faith in my teacher and obedience to his words, I realised my true being, I left behind my human nature to look after itself, until its destiny is exhausted. Occasionally an old reaction, emotional or mental, happens in the mind, but it is at once noticed and discarded. After all, as long as one is burdened with a person, one is exposed to its idiosyncrasies and habits. - Talks with Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
