Shiva Ratri

God is in Me and
I am in the Heart of God

Yoga is the work of the inner self (vyakta) on the outer self (vyakti). All the outer does is merely in response to the inner. The inner is the source of inspiration, the outer is moved by memory. The outer can help by keeping quiet and free from desire and fear. All positives belong to the inner self, as all absolutes to Reality.

A Life Dedicated to God Realization

The real does not die, the unreal never lived.
Once you know that death happens to the body and not to you, you just watch your body falling off like a discarded garment. The real you is timeless and beyond birth and death. The body will survive as long as it is needed. It is not important that it should live long.
- Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
