Image
Such happiness is relative and is better called pleasure or satisfaction.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Non-action is unceasing activity. The sage is characterized by eternal and intense activity. His stillness is like the apparent stillness of a fast rotating gyroscope.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
There is nothing wrong with God's creation. Mystery and Suffering only exist in the mind.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The mind is only a bundle of thoughts. The thoughts have their root in the I-thought. Whoever investigates the True I enjoys the stillness of bliss.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Take no notice of the ego and its activities, but see only the light behind.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The Self is the heart, self-luminous. Illumination arises from the heart and reaches the brain, which is the seat of the mind. The world is seen with the mind so you see the world by the reflected light of the Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The place where even the slightest trace of the 'I' does not exist, alone is Self.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
As you are, so is the world.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
When the mind, one-pointed and fully focused, knows the supreme silence in the Heart, this is true learning.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
Seeing God without seeing the Self, one sees only mental image. Only he who has seen Himself has seen God, since he has lost individuality, and now sees nothing but God.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
You are all searching for the silence of the mountain. But you're looking for something outside. This silence is accessible to you right now, inside the center of your own being.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
There must be a subject to know the good and evil. Thatsubject is the ego.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
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
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
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
Image
Realization consists of getting rid of the false idea that one is not realized.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
The state we call realization is simply being oneself, not knowing anything or becoming anything.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
I see only what you see, but I notice what I see.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
There is nothing new to gain. On the other hand a man must lose his ignorance. That is all.
Ramana Maharshi
Image
If there is anything besides the Self there is reason to fear? Who sees the second? First, the ego arises and sees objects as external. If the ego does not rise, the Self alone exists and there is no second.
