Guest guest Posted May 15, 2001 Report Share Posted May 15, 2001 Q: What are the fundamental tests for discovering men of great spirituality, since some are reported to behave like insane people ? A: The jnani's mind is known only to the jnani . One must be a jnani oneself in order to understand another jnani. However the peace of mind which permeats the saint's atmosphere is the only means by which the seeker understands the greatness of the saint. His words or actions or appearance are no indication of his greatness , for they are ordinarily beyond the comprehension of common people. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ BE AS YOU ARE, The Teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi edited by David Godman ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
