Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 If we understand Sri Ramana's teaching, we see that anything other than what is already here, no matter how beautiful and captivating, will always turn out to be a mirage. A mirage can never satisfy our thirst. Therefore, we have to understand what is already here. What is always here? People speak of being in the present moment. It is just a way of speaking. How can we be separate from the moment. We are never in the present moment. We Are Always The Present Moment. See that this presence, this ordinary presence, is the True Presence. This mind, this ordinary mind, is the Buddha Mind. Is it possible to truly understand anyone's suffering other than by reference to one's own? It always comes back to that. Is it possible to know anyone else's self without reference to one's own self? This is why the ancient sages beautifully declare, "Know That by which all else is known." Know That by which all else is known. Love to all Harsha ===== /join Search - Find what you’re looking for faster http://search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
