His refusal of false comfort hit hard. It taught me that letting go is strength. Pain shifts when you don’t resist.

LIKE ALL DRAMS REALLY ARE ILLUSION…THEN IT IS SIMPLE TO SEE THAT ALL THE SENCES ARE LYING…THIS INCLUDING THE SENCES OF UNDERSTANDING. SHE SAID THIS IS WAHT NISARGADATTA TAUGHT HER. WONDERFUL ISN`T IT !

Frans, could you please post that photo here so we can see it too? Thank you. I love Maharaj and it would be great to see him with his disciples.

I was fortunate being in Nisargadatta’s presence in 1978, and I took a photo in his mezzanine room. In the middle of this picture you see her sitting. Until yesterday I had no idea who she was, but someone recognized her and told me that she is Vanata Narayanaswami. I googled her name and just now I am reading these stories. You can imagine how special this is. Here I am in Amsterdam, so many years later, making this wonderful connection, and bringing to mind most vividly the times I was with Nisargadatta, not understanding a word what he was saying but silently absorbing his profound message anyway. If posdible I would like to send this photo to Vanata. Thank you again.
