Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj’s Thoughts

Posted on August 27, 2013 by shantanup

Speakingtree.in drew my attention to its ‘Thought for the day’ today with the following quote from Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj that I found really to be really true:

When you demand nothing of the world, nor of God, when you want nothing, seek nothing, expect nothing, then the supreme state will come to you uninvited and unexpected.

To me the thoughts of this person are worthy of studies just on the basis of this one saying of his. My only query on it will be ‘longing’ for knowledge: that is not the same as demanding it, is it? Come to think of it: do I even long for it? I just act on the spur of the moment as my life goes on and I encounter things that I then seek out the truths of and expose them.
