' Quiet Attention '...


Be interested in yourself beyond all experience,
be with yourself, love yourself; the ultimate
security is found only in self-knowledge.

The
main thing is earnestness.

Be honest with
yourself and nothing will betray you.

Virtues
and powers are mere tokens for children to play
with.

They are useful in the world, but do not
take you out of it.

To go beyond, you need alert
immobility, quiet attention.



- Nisargadatta Maharaj
