“నేను ఉన్నాను” ధ్యానం – నిసర్గదత్త మహారాజ్ మార్గం (Meditation on “I Am”: The Nisargadatta Maharaj Path)


“నేను ఉన్నాను” అనే భావమే నిసర్గదత్త మహారాజ్ బోధన యొక్క కేంద్రబిందువు. ఇది శరీర-మనస్సు గుర్తింపుల నుండి స్వతంత్రంగా ఉన్న పరిశుద్ధ అసిత్వానుభవం. ఆలోచనలు, గుర్తింపులు, భావోద్వేగాలన్నింటినీ పక్కనపెట్టి కేవలం ‘నేను ఉన్నాను’ అనే భావనలో నిలిచిపోవడం ద్వారా మనస్సు నిశ్శబ్దమవుతుంది; ఆ నిశ్శబ్దమే నిజ స్వరూపానికి ద్వారం. మహారాజ్ చెప్పినట్లుగా, ‘I Am’ అనేది బ్రహ్మానికి ప్రతిబింబం; దానిపై ధ్యానం చేస్తూ చివరకు దానినే దాటి పరబ్రహ్మ స్థితి ప్రత్యక్షమవుతుంది. ఈ సాధన సులభమైనదైనా అత్యంత ప్రభావవంతమైనది.”

Spinoza and Shankara: When God Became the Universe and the Self Became God


What if the philosopher Spinoza and the sage Shankara had met?
Both, separated by continents and centuries, spoke of one ultimate Reality—an infinite, self-existent essence that manifests as all things. Spinoza called it God or Nature; Shankara called it Brahman. One reasoned his way to unity, the other realized it through inner awakening. In both visions, the world is not separate from the Divine—it is the Divine, appearing in countless forms. To see this is to be free, to live it is to be blissful. The rest—names, forms, selves—are but waves on the same ocean.
