The Teaching

                                          

“Unless one looks upon death as a thing that is very near and that might happen at any moment, one will not be aware of the Self. This means that the ego must die, must vanish along with the inherent vasanas. If the ego vanishes thus, the Self will shine forth radiantly. Then there can be no more births and deaths.” 

“ Only humility can destroy the ego, that which keeps you far away from God. The doorway to God is always open but the lintel is very low: to enter, one has to bow low.”
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi



The greatest power is in the teaching of the master. 
The greatest blessing is his compassionate grace that grants understanding of the teaching.

Open the door to the flood of grace by tapasya, the practice of faith, devotion and surrender.

At last, learn to listen with the soul, to trust, without doubt or hesitation, in the teaching. 

This is the master’s gift, the still, silent awareness that is his transcendental peace.

This is the master shining as the Self within the Heart.
Stay as this - always.

“If one abides clinging constantly to the Self in the Heart, then ,through that state of peace, all other attachments and desires will fall away and only your natural state, liberation, will remain.”

“Nirvana is perfection. In the perfect state, there is no subject and object; there is nothing to see, nothing to feel, nothing to know. Seeing, feeling and knowing are functions of the mind. In nirvana , nothing exists but the blissful, pure consciousness “I am”.”
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi.
