Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj was an Indian spiritual teacher and
philosopher of Advaita (Nondualism), and a Guru, belonging to the
Navnath Sampradaya. Sri Nisargadatta, with his direct and
minimalistic explanation of non-dualism, is considered the most
famous teacher of Advaita since Ramana Maharshi. In 1973, the
publication of his most famous and widely-translated book, "I AM
THAT", an English translation of his talks in Marathi by Maurice
Frydman, brought him worldwide recognition and followers.
