More quotes by Ramana Maharshi
The place where even the slightest trace of the 'I' does not exist, alone is Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Realisation is nothing new to be acquired. It is already there, but obstructed by a screen of thoughts. All our attempts are directed to lifting this screen and then realisation is revealed.
Ramana Maharshi
Surrender is to give oneself up to the original cause of one's being.
Ramana Maharshi
The Self alone exists. When you try to trace the ego, which is the basis of the perception of the world and everything else, you find the ego does not exist at all and neither does all this creation that you see.
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
The source of the ego is God.
Ramana Maharshi
We are so engrossed with the objects, or appearances revealed by the light, that we pay no attention to the light.
Ramana Maharshi
Thoughts come and go. Feelings come and go. Find out what it is that remains.
Ramana Maharshi
When the mind, one-pointed and fully focused, knows the supreme silence in the Heart, this is true learning.
Ramana Maharshi
The ultimate truth is so simple. It is nothing more than being in the pristine state. This is all that needs to be said. Only mature minds can grasp the simple truth in all its nakedness.
Ramana Maharshi
Such happiness is relative and is better called pleasure or satisfaction.
Ramana Maharshi
Aim high, aim at the highest, and all lower aims are thereby achieved. It is looking below on the stormy sea of differences that makes you sink. Look up, beyond these and see the One Glorious Real, and you are saved.
Ramana Maharshi
Your duty is to be, and not to be this or that. I Am That I Am sums up the whole truth the method is summarized in Be Still.
Ramana Maharshi
Take no notice of the ego and its activities, but see only the light behind.
Ramana Maharshi
For those who have obtained unobstructed knowledge of Self, the world is seen merely as a bondage causing imagination.
Ramana Maharshi
The world is not outside you.
Ramana Maharshi
If one watches whence the notion 'I' arises, the mind gets absorbed there that is tapas. When a mantra is repeated, if one watches whence that mantra sound arises, the mind gets absorbed there that is tapas.
Ramana Maharshi
There is no greater mystery than this, that we keep seeking reality though in fact we are reality. We think that there is something hiding reality and that this must be destroyed before reality is gained. How ridiculous! A day will dawn when you will laugh ... at all your past efforts. That which will be the day you laugh is also here and now.
Ramana Maharshi
To know one's Self is to be blissful always.
Ramana Maharshi
Discover your undying Self and be immortal and happy.
