In awareness you seek not what pleases, but what is true

[With self-awareness] you grow more intelligent. In awareness you learn, in self-awareness you learn about yourself. Of course, you can only learn what you are not. To know what you are, you must go beyond the mind. Awareness is the point at which the mind reaches out beyond itself into reality. In awareness you seek not what pleases, but what is true.

-Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Hi there, Sri Nisargadatta is my favorite Guru, but for most people it's quite hard to understand what he wants to convey. I've found something on youtube, that might interest you. As a student of Sri Nisargadatta I can confirm what is being said in these videos.
