Apparently Nisargadatta's method of the abidance in the "I Am" *was*
what his guru taught. It was what he termed the "bird's way" to
enlightenment, because the mind alights upon the fruit of realization
directly, as opposed to the way he ("he" being Siddharameshwar,
Nisargadatta's guru) became realized which he termed the "ant's way"
by which one travels progressively, bit-by-bit, to the goal.
However, Nisargadatta did impart a Nath mantra for those who asked for
it, and from what I've read it was somewhat long and he only spoke it
out to the devotee once so some folks were left somewhat nonplussed
when they didn't quite get the whole thing down in one take.
Besides daily guru puja Nisargadatta conducted five bhajans each day
because his guru had told him to do so and never released him from
that instruction before he died.
