[RamanaMaharshi] the highest truth of all religions

".....we see that a sustained and one-pointed resolve to find the real

Self - which is the highest and purestform of devotion - is the means

of winning that Self.This is in accord with a text of the ancient

Revelation which says:"He alone shall find this Self , who is

powerfully attractedto Him in complete devotion; to him that Self

reveals Himself as He really is."* This the highest truth of all

religions;it was differently expressed by Jesus , who said :"Ask ,

and It shall be given ;knock and It shall be opened."* the passage

referred to occurs in Upadesa Saram.

And also in the Gita:

> The truth that I am:

> Through this knowledge he enters

> At once to my Being....

>

> Give me your whole heart,

> Love and adore me,

> Worship me always,

> Bow to me only,

> And you shall find me:

> This is my promise

> Who love you dearly.

> - Krishna in _Bhagavad-Gita_

Dear Tony,

'Attachment to experience' does not mean that experience is illusion. The

attachment itself is illusion, let go of the attachment and voila...

liberation.

 

Love, Wim
