The Jnani

“Noble men live calmly and loftily,
Moving for the benefit of the world, like the spring,
Having themselves crossed the fearful ocean of life,
They, with no motive, help others also to cross it.”
Vikachudamani, Adi Sankaracharya.


O Lord, you have lit the lamp of wisdom in the Heart-cave wherein you dwell:

now grant me your grace that the wick of my soul may always be fuelled with the oil of devotion and surrender.

May the shields of attention and stillness shelter the flame from vasana winds.
May all that is illusion and darkness be dispelled by the radiance of that Light.
May the eternal flame of jnana burn steady and bright in the Heart,ever worshipping your lotus feet.



May my true Being blossom as the blessing of your transcendent peace.

“ My darkness was revealed and dispelled by the mere confrontation with light – light that did not condemn me or wish to change me but accepted and loved me totally and unconditionally; that saw me as nothing other than light.
When thought is seen as nothing but consciousness or clarity, as nothing but a ripple on a whirlpool of light, then thought disappears and light alone remains. This is the real death and the return to life as it really is, ever now.

When it is clearly seen that every perception, sensorial or emotional or mental, is nothing but a brief movement in consciousness, in light, then, from that moment on, every perception chants the glory of this clarity, as every wave is a song of the sea. 
Love does not search for love. It recognises it everywhere.”
Wolter Keers, after meeting with Ramana Maharishi
