More quotes by Ramana Maharshi

Image
Call it by any name, God, Self, the Heart, or the Seat of Consciousness, it is all the same.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Knowing the Self, God is known.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
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
Image
He whose pure mind turns inward and searches whence does this 'I' arise, knows the Self and merges in You, the Lord, as a river into the sea.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
You do not like to suffer yourself. How can you inflict suffering on others?
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Without seeing the origin of light, the true form of one's Self, the ordinary man sees by the mind different things and is deluded.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Realisation is not acquisition of anything new nor is it a new faculty. It is only removal of all camouflage
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Time is only an idea. There is only the Reality. Whatever you think it is, it looks like that. If you call it time, it is time. If you call it existence, it is existence, and so on. After calling it time, you divide it into days and nights, months, years, hours, minutes, etc. Time is immaterial for the Path of Knowledge.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Pure Consciousness, which is the Heart, includes all, and nothing is outside or apart from it. That is the ultimate Truth.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
You need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your present thoughts, that is all.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Mind is a wonderful force inherent in the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The Seeker himself becomes the knower. The thing to be known is already there. There is nothing to be known afresh. More-over there are no two things. There is only the seer, the knower.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The Self itself is the world the Self itself is 'I' the Self itself is God all is Siva, the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Wanting to reform the world without discovering one's true self is like trying to cover the world with leather to avoid the pain of walking on stones and thorns. It is much simpler to wear shoes.
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
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The Sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Realization consists of getting rid of the false idea that one is not realized.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The experience of silence alone is the real and perfect knowledge.
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
Your own Self-realization is the greatest service you can render the world.
Ramana Maharshi
