Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Nisargadatta Maharaj

Advaita Fellowship - The Advaita Fellowship of Redondo beach, California is concerned with the teaching stemming from Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj to Ramesh Balsekar and Wayne Liquorman.
"Even for a moment do not think that you are the body. Give yourself no name, no shape. In the darkness and the silence reality is found."

Timothy Conway has a page containing masses of biographical and other information as well as photos and an extensive list of resources.

Nisargadatta's most famous dialogues are contained in 'I am That', an essential Advaita manual, listed in the Recommended Reading section.

Alternatively, here is the link to Amazon UK.

 

Here is another site specifically devoted to Nisargadatta Maharaj and another containing links to still more sites.

Nisargadatta DVD

There are four 2 1/2 hour DVDs narrated by Dr.Stephen Wolinsky (a disciple), which may be purchased from Neti Neti Films. These include actual footage of Nisargadatta Maharaj. The teaching certainly relates to Nisargadatta, although there is also much material that does not. Talks address Buddhist and tantric teachings as well as more modern, Western philosophies such as that of Korzybski, Derrida, Post-Deconstructionism and even quantum mechanics.

   
 

There is an article on a meeting with Nisargadatta Maharaj by Dr. Lakshyan Schanzer, complete with photos, at Dr. Harsh Luthar's site.

   
 

Maharaj Nisargadatta is primarily set up to provide details of this teacher and contains a huge collection of quotations, together with biography, lineage and photos and the complete text of 'I am That'. However, there are also many more essays and books on Advaita in general, including many of the books by Ramana Maharshi, Upanishads, Gita and Brahmasutras, works by Sivananda and Krishnananda, Ramakrishna and Vivekananda, and a number from the Bhaktivedanta Trust.

   
 

Nisargadatta.org is a very stylish and comprehensive site devoted to providing an introduction to the teachings of Nisargadatta Maharaj, particularly for newcomers to spirituality, and especially advaita Vedanta. Highly recommended.
