The place where even the slightest trace of the 'I' does not exist, alone is Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
It is enough that one surrenders oneself. Surrender is giving oneself up to the original cause of one's being. Do not delude yourself by imagining this source to be some God outside you. One's source is within oneself. Give yourself up to it. That means that you should seek the source and merge in it.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
You do not like to suffer yourself. How can you inflict suffering on others?
Ramana Maharshi

There must be a subject to know the good and evil. Thatsubject is the ego.

There is no seeing. Seeing is only being.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
We see only the script and not the paper on which the script is written. The paper is there, whether the script is on it or not. To those who look upon the script as real, you have to say that it is unreal - an illusion - since it rests upon the paper. The wise person looks upon both paper and script as one.

'I Am' is the name of God, God is none other than the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Peace is your natural state. It is the mind that obstructs the natural state.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Consciousness is indeed always with us. Everyone knows 'I am!' No one can deny his own being.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
There is no mind to control if you realise the self. The mind having vanished, the self shines forth. In the realised man, the mind may be active or inactive, the self remains for him.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The ego's phenomenal existence is transcended when you dive into the source from where the `I'-thought rises
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Realization consists of getting rid of the false idea that one is not realized.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
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
Image
We loosely talk of Self-realization, for lack of a better term. But how can one realize that which alone is real? All we need to do is to give up our habit of regarding as real that which is unreal. All religious practices are meant solely to help us do this.
