The Sense of "I am" (Consciousness)

"The core of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj's teaching is the knowledge of one's own true identity. This knowledge is indeed the pivotal point around which moves everything." Ramesh Balsekar

A simple man, Nisargadatta Maharaj, was a householder and petty shopkeeper in Bombay where Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj lived, and died in 1981 at the age of 84. 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 lucid nature of his direct discourse. Hundreds of diverse seekers traveled the globe and sought him out in his unpretentious home to hear him. 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.
