Summary
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj （1897-1981） is a revered master of the Tantric Nath lineage。 His reputation and the popularity of his works has been increasing at an astonishing rate since his death in 1981。 He is an inspiring example of an ordinary merchant and family man who attained complete realization of the Infinite， who taught that true freedom is a possibility for every one of us。 Disciples and seekers from all over the world were drawn to his humble home in the tenements of Bombay。
Even on the printed page， in this moving volume of talks edited by Robert Powell， Nisargadatta's words carry a special potency。 They are the words of a compassionate wise man， speaking equally to the heart-oriented and the head-oriented person， to East and West。

Amazing， an entire book on "the experience of nothingness"！ You'd think that the "experience of nothingness" could simply be described as "there's nothing there"！Here is a man， who like Siddhārtha Gautama， renounced his worldly life in favor of a search for ultimate meaning。And sure enough， he found it 。。。 he came to the realization that that "nothing was wrong anymore。"In his humble way， he is sharing his experience and insights。Like licorice 。。。 not for everyone， but as Jerry Garcia once said， Amazing， an entire book on "the experience of nothingness"！ You'd think that the "experience of nothingness" could simply be described as "there's nothing there"！Here is a man， who like Siddhārtha Gautama， renounced his worldly life in favor of a search for ultimate meaning。And sure enough， he found it 。。。 he came to the realization that that "nothing was wrong anymore。"In his humble way， he is sharing his experience and insights。Like licorice 。。。 not for everyone， but as Jerry Garcia once said， "not everybody likes licorice， but the people who like licorice really like licorice"！ 。。。more

I enjoyed reading this book even though there is an abstract language barrier。 If I would not have some of the experiences Maharaj was talking about it would have been very difficult to go through the book！ My favorite: " 。。。a dream is not different from what is seen in the walking state: both are plays of consciousness。。。 both are events happening in consciousness and essentially they are not different"。 I enjoyed reading this book even though there is an abstract language barrier。 If I would not have some of the experiences Maharaj was talking about it would have been very difficult to go through the book！ My favorite: " 。。。a dream is not different from what is seen in the walking state: both are plays of consciousness。。。 both are events happening in consciousness and essentially they are not different"。 。。。more

This book show once again why I call him one of the greatest sage that ever lived。 In this book， Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj explain many of spiritual topics in this book: who is the true sage， how to be happy， the end of suffering， etc。 Robert Powell edited this book very well， I think he is the second best devotee of Maharaj after Ramesh Balsekar。
