More quotes by Ramana Maharshi

Ramana Maharshi
If you observe awareness steadily, this awareness itself becomes the Guru that will reveal the Truth.
Ramana Maharshi
The seat of Realization is within and the seeker cannot find it as an object outside him. That seat is bliss and is the core of all beings. Hence it is called the Heart.
Ramana Maharshi
The enemy hates the ego, which the seeker wants to kill thus, like the anvil to the goldsmith, he is actually a friend.
Ramana Maharshi
Thoughts come and go. Feelings come and go. Find out what it is that remains.

Ramana Maharshi
'I Am' is the name of God, God is none other than the Self.
Ramana Maharshi

Ramana Maharshi
The solution to your problem is to see who has it.
Ramana Maharshi
The ego's phenomenal existence is transcended when you dive into the source from where the `I'-thought rises
Ramana Maharshi
Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
Ramana Maharshi
Let knowledge be guessed by the sign of equality to all beings.
Ramana Maharshi
Then all this earth shines like one house.
Ramana Maharshi
Mind is a wonderful force inherent in the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Take no notice of the ego and its activities, but see only the light behind.
