The Great Stillness and Nisargadatta Maharaj — A Short Reading by Rupert Spira

Rupert explores the great stillness and silence that are the essence of all the great religious and spiritual traditions. Reading from Nisargadatta Maharaj and quoting the Christian and Sufi Mystics, he shows how sinking into the great stillness that lies — so to speak — behind the mind, is the way to peace and freedom from suffering.

As Nisargadatta Maharaj said in 'I Am That', "All the objects of consciousness form the universe. What is beyond both, supporting both, is the supreme state, a state of utter stillness and silence. Whoever goes there, disappears. It is unreachable by words, or mind. You may call it God, or Parabrahman, or Supreme Reality, but these are names given by the mind. It is the nameless, contentless, effortless and spontaneous state, beyond being and not being."
