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.

More quotes by Ramana Maharshi
All that one gives to others one gives to one's self. If this truth is understood, who will not give to others?
Ramana Maharshi
There is nothing new to gain. On the other hand a man must lose his ignorance. That is all.
Ramana Maharshi
Then all this earth shines like one house.
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
When the mind, one-pointed and fully focused, knows the supreme silence in the Heart, this is true learning.
Ramana Maharshi
The world is illusory, Only Brahman is real, Brahman is the world
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
By whatever path you go, you will have to lose yourself in the one. Surrender is complete only when you reach the stage `Thou art all' and `Thy will be done'.
Ramana Maharshi
Pure Consciousness, which is the Heart, includes all, and nothing is outside or apart from it. That is the ultimate Truth.
Ramana Maharshi
The place where even the slightest trace of the 'I' does not exist, alone is Self.
Ramana Maharshi
There must be a subject to know the good and evil. Thatsubject is the ego.
Ramana Maharshi
For those who have obtained unobstructed knowledge of Self, the world is seen merely as a bondage causing imagination.
Ramana Maharshi
Surrender is to give oneself up to the original cause of one's being.
Ramana Maharshi
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.
Ramana Maharshi
The activity affected by causes like fainting, sleep, excessive joy, grief, possession by spirits, fear etc goes to the heart, its own place.
Ramana Maharshi
If a person realises his position and stays in his own self, things that are to happen will happen. Things that are not to happen will not happen. The shakti that is in the world, is only one. All these troubles arise if we think that we are separate from that shakti.
Ramana Maharshi
'I Am' is the name of God, God is none other than the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
The experience of silence alone is the real and perfect knowledge.
Ramana Maharshi
The search Who am I...ends in the annihilation of the illusory I and the Self which remains over will be as clear as a gooseberry in the palm of one's hand.
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.
