To all of them he gave hope that beyond the real experience is not the mind, but the self, the light in which everything appears, the awareness in which everything happens. Hundreds of diverse seekers traveled the globe and sought him to in his unpretentious home to hear him. He had not been educated formally but came to be respected and loved for his insights into the crux of human pain and the extraordinary lucidity of his direct discourse. He taught that mind must recognize and penetrate its own state of being, not being his or that, here or there, then or now, but just timeless being.Ī simple man, Maharaj was a householder and petty store keeper in Bombay where he lived, and died in 1981 at the age of 84. IT was his mission to guide the individual o an understanding of his true nature and the timelessness of being. The sage’s sole concern was with human suffering and the ending of suffering. I Am That preserves his dialogues with the followers who came from around the world seeking guidance in destroying false identities. His message is simple, direct and yet sublime. Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj was a teacher who did not propound any ideology or religion but gently unwrapped the mystery of the self.
I Am That (now in its ninth printing) continues to draw new audiences and to enlighten anxious seekers for self-realization. This collection of the timeless teaching of one of the greatest sages of India, Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, regarded by many as a modern spiritual classic, is a testament to the uniqueness of the seer’s life and work.
