A quiet mind is all you need. All else will happen rightly, once your mind is quiet. As the sun on rising makes the world active, so does self-awareness affect changes in the mind. In the light of calm and

steady self-awareness, inner energies wake up and work miracles without any effort on your part. - Nisargadatta Maharaj

He has not attained who is conscious that he has attained, for this very consciousness cunningly hides the ego and delivers him into

its power. That alone is attainment which is natural, spontaneous, unforced, unaware, and unadvertised, whether to the man himself or to others.

— Notebooks, Brunton

When you rest in quietness and your image of yourself fades,and your image of the world fades,and your ideas of others fade, what's left?A brightness, a radiant emptiness that is simply what you are.

In the BeginningSometimes simplicity riseslike a blossom of firefrom the white silk of your own skin.You were there in the beginningyou heard the story, you heard the merciless

and tender words telling you where you had to go.Exile is never easy and the journeyitself leaves a bitter taste. But then,when you heard that voice, you had to go.You couldn't sit by the fire, you couldn't live

so close to the live flame of that compassionyou had to go out in the world and make it your ownso you could come back withthat flame in your voice, saying listen...this warmth, this unbearable light, this fearful love...

It is all here, it is all here.~ Whyte ~
