To know itself the self must be faced with its

opposite - the not-self. Desire leads to

experience. Experience leads to discrimination,

detachment, self-knowledge - liberation. And

what is liberation after all? To know that you

are beyond birth and death. By forgetting who

you are and imagining yourself a mortal

creature, you created so much trouble for

yourself that you have to wake up, like from a

bad dream.

 

- Nisargadatta Maharaj

This quotation is from:

" I Am That "

Talks with Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

The Acorn Press, 1973
