Books on Nisargadatta Maharaj |
I am That is Nisargadatta Maharaj's most well known book. Translated by Maurice Frydman, this book had profound effect on spiritual seekers from all paths of life. Who is the jnani? The witness or the supreme? Maharaj: The jnani is the supreme and also the witness. He is both being and awareness. In relation to consciousness he is awareness. In relation to the universe he is pure being. |

Consciousness and the Absolute were recorded shortly before Nisargadatta's death in 1981, and translated directly to English with no changes. In a question and answer format the visitors and devotees accompanied this great master during his final teachings. His message uncompromisingly remained the same to the end, to dwell only on our beingness, giving it no attributes, dwelling prior to our thoughts. |
Prior to Consciousness Talks with Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj Edited by Jean Dunn Acorn Press These talks took place between April1980 and July 1981 between seekers from all over the world and Nisargadatta Maharaj. He continues to hammer at our egos, insisting that we can only know through our personal experience, not through the second-hand knowledge of others and of books. His words are used like a surgeons scalpel, used to cut away the concepts we have been given since birth. Before this form came - what was I? He was very sharp with his answers. In the last two years of his life he would not entertain any questions pertaining to this worldly life and it's improvement. He spoke only the plain truth.

Daily, visitors would enter the ground floor residence in Khetwadi, Bombay, and either remain silent in Maharaj's presence or pose questions to him to bring forth his wisdom. He would say he is not a learned man and therefore can only speak from his own experience, and that whatever he has been able to know about his true being applies to everyone else. This series of questions and answers bears the same stamp of authenticity that all these books share. The editor, Jean Dunn has done the world a great service by bringing these talks to light, in translation from the original Marathi language. With an introduction by Ramesh S. Balsekar. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` The Experience of Nothingness Sri Nisargadatta's Talks on Realizing the Infinite Edited by Robert Powell Blue Dove Press With chapter headings such as, Maharaj Sets Out The Basics, At The Highest Level Nothing Is, At The Worldly Level Everything Is, and The Experience Of Nothingness and a Glossary and Bibliography this well produced and edited book goes further into the teachings of this Master of the Tantric Nath lineage. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` I Am That I Am by Stephen Wolinsky A Tribute to Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj Dr. Stephen Wolinsky is the founder of Quantum Psychology and a disciple of Nisargadatta Maharaj.

The Nectar Of Immortality Nisargadatta Maharaj questioning and pushing his listeners and devotees further and further back, into their I-am-ness; asking them to discover who they were 100 years before, dealing with the principle prior to mind, not allowing any concepts to settle there. These books remind us of the non methods of Zen and Chan Masters; and their direct approach to this great matter force us as the reader to go beyond merely reading, and enter into that which we call "I". . |
