The sources are a compilation of questions and answers between Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, a Hindu spiritual teacher, and various questioners. The exchanges examine the nature of self, consciousness, and the illusion of the material world. Maharaj argues that true reality lies beyond the mind, beyond the "I am" concept, and beyond any duality of perception or conception. He stresses the importance of self-awareness, the abandonment of desires and fears, and the acceptance of life as it comes. He also emphasizes that liberation is not a goal to be achieved but a state of being that is already present.
