Guest guest Posted May 11, 2001 Report Share Posted May 11, 2001 Paul Brunton has given the following account of the first impact the silence of Sri Bhagavan made upon his mind: "I cannot turn my gaze away from him. My initial bewilderment, my perplexity at being totally ignored,slowly fade away as this strange fascination begins to grip me more firmly. But it is not till the second hour of the uncommon scene that I become aware of a silent, resistless change which is taking place within my mind. One by one, the questions which I prepared in the train with such meticulous accuracy drop away. For it does not now seem to matter whether they are asked or not , and it does not matter whether I solve the problems which have hitherto troubled me. I know only that a steady river of quietness seems to be flowing near me , that a great peace is penetrating the inner reaches of my being , and that my thought-tortured brain is beginning to arrive at some rest." from Bhagavan Sri Ramana. A Pictorial Biography. as far as I remember this is from "A Search in Secret India" too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
