  1. #CurrentlyReading “Ramana Maharshi: Teachings of Self-Realization” by Robert Wolfe. Page 63 quote: “All things come and go in the Self; therefore all but the Self is not genuine or truly existent. When the truth is clearly perceived, the ‘I-thought’ (the idea of self existence—for anything other than the Essence) falls away.…Anything which can be named is merely an alias for one thing: that Essence.”

  6. The quote on the image below appears on page 46 of the book "Ramana Maharshi: Teachings of Self-Realization" by Robert Wolfe. It begins with, "For those who ask, 'What is to be done about the conditions in the world?', Ramana replies: 'First set yourself right, and then only set out to improve "others."'

    In other words, only when you let go of your small self and accept the "capital S" Self can you hope to help "others" see that there are no others.

  10. "It is the attention turned towards the body that causes the distinctions between 'you' and 'I'. If one realizes that the reality is One, where then is the scope for saying 'you' or 'I'?"

    ~Ramana Maharshi

  13. I'm reading through "Ramana Maharshi: Teachings of Self-Realization" by Robert Wolfe. It's written as if someone is having a Q&A session with Ramana, with the answers being a collection of his teachings. This is a quote that spoke to me today: "When once you realize your own Self, and that there is nothing other than this Self, you will come to look upon the whole universe as the Self....The totality of all things and beings constitute Self."

    If #Realisation be something outside you a way can be shown consistent with the safety of the individual, his capacity. etc. ... The #Self is always realised. But only you do not recognise the fact. ...

  21. What is Bhakti?

    #Bhakti (Devotion) is not different from Mukti (Release). Bhakti is being as the Self (Swarupa). One is always That. He realises it by the means he adopts. What is Bhakti? To think of God. That means: only one thought prevails to the exclusion of all other thoughts. That thought is of God which is the Self or it is the Self surrendered unto God. When He has taken you up nothing will assail you. The absence of thoughts is Bhakti. It is also Mukti.

  23. You cannot find #Bliss in places and in periods of time!!

    When you leave the place you say you are unhappy. Therefore this peace is not permanent, nay it is mixed with unhappiness which is felt in another place. Therefore you cannot find Bliss in places and in periods of time. It must be permanent in order that it may be useful. Such permanent being is yourself. Be the Self and that is Bliss. You are always That.

  24. One could cause God through alchemy.
    But even if that God tells you something don’t believe it. If I come in
    front of you don’t believe it. The Seer is most important. You are. That is
    most important. Concentrate on the Seer, not on the seen. All that you
    see is false and the Seer alone is true. All knowledge you gather is useless, until you hold on to your Self. You are the Truth, not what is being
    told to you, not what you see.
