Guest guest Posted June 2, 2002 Report Share Posted June 2, 2002 Dear All, I forward here one of my sharings from another group. Every comment is welcome. Love Gabriele self_realization_dialogues, "gabriele_ebert" <g.ebert@g...> wrote: Dear All, This "Who am I" of Ramana is one of the most essential works about Self-enquiry with clear instructions. I started reading this book 11 years ago and have read it since several times. Only now its meanings opens to me gradually. Today I became newly aware of this part given in the posting. In the process of enquiry, when concentration is one-pointed and the mind is silent, this is a good "exercise" here: to catch the thoughts/emotions immediatatly after they arise and come into awareness and bring them back to their source -one by one. So thoughts will stay "unthought" and emotions will stay unexperienced.
