More quotes by Ramana Maharshi
We are always peace. To get rid of the idea that we are not peace is all that is required.
Ramana Maharshi
One should remain as a witness to whatever happens, adopting the attitude, 'Let whatever strange things that happens happen, let us see!' This should be one's practice. Nothing happens by accident in the divine scheme of things.
Ramana Maharshi
For those who have obtained unobstructed knowledge of Self, the world is seen merely as a bondage causing imagination.
Ramana Maharshi
Realisation is our nature. It is nothing new to be gained. What is new cannot be eternal. Therefore there is no need for doubting if one would lose or gain the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
If you approach the ocean with a cup, you can only take away a cupful if you approach it with a bucket you can take away a bucketful.
Ramana Maharshi
Because truth is exceedingly subtle and serene, the bliss of the Self can manifest only in a mind rendered subtle and steady by assiduous meditation.
Ramana Maharshi
If the mind falls asleep, awaken it. Then if it starts wandering, make it quiet. If you reach the state where there is neither sleep nor movement of mind, stay still in that, the natural (real) state.
Ramana Maharshi
The world is illusory, Only Brahman is real, Brahman is the world
Ramana Maharshi
Peace is your natural state. It is the mind that obstructs the natural state.
Ramana Maharshi
Existence of Isvara follows our conception of Isvara. Let us first know whose concept He is. The concept will be only according to the one who conceives. Find out who you are and the other problem will solve itself.
Ramana Maharshi
When there are thoughts, it is distraction: when there are no thoughts, it is meditation.
Ramana Maharshi
Grace is always present. You imagine it as something high in the sky, far away, something that has to descend. It is really inside you, in your heart. When the mind rests in its source, grace rushes forth, sprouting as from a spring within you.
Ramana Maharshi
Meditation depends upon the strength of mind. It must be unceasing even when one is engaged in work. Particular time for it is meant for novices.
Ramana Maharshi
Turn your vision inward and then the whole world will be full of the Supreme Spirit.
Ramana Maharshi
Then all this earth shines like one house.
Ramana Maharshi
Have faith in God and in yourself that will cure all. Hope for the best, expect the best, toil for the best and everything will come right for you in the end.
Ramana Maharshi
You need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your present thoughts, that is all.
Ramana Maharshi
The experience of silence alone is the real and perfect knowledge.
Ramana Maharshi
The explorers seek happiness in finding curiosities, discovering new lands and undergoing risks in adventures. They are thrilling. But where is pleasure found? Only within. Pleasure is not to be sought in the external world.
Ramana Maharshi
Seeing God without seeing the Self, one sees only mental image. Only he who has seen Himself has seen God, since he has lost individuality, and now sees nothing but God.
Ramana Maharshi
