Guest guest Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 I have created a new today called the Awareness Love Bliss group. If you would like to join the group, click this link: awarenesslovebliss Then click “Join this group”. #1. Ramana Maharshi taught a means to Direct, Immediate, Instant Self-Abidance that is far more effective, rapid and direct than the method many people call Self-inquiry. This method is the most rapid means to be liberated from the ego and abide in Infinite-eternal-love-bliss-awareness, Nirvana, the kingdom of heaven within you. This method has been mostly overlooked by those who study Sri Ramana Maharshi's teachings. At the Awareness Love Bliss group, the differences between the method of Direct, Immediate, Instant Self-abidance, as taught by Sri Ramana Maharshi and the method of asking “To whom do these thoughts arise?” and “Who am I?” as outlined in the book “Who am I?” will be pointed out. The reasons why Direct, Immediate, Instant Abidance is so much more effective will be pointed out also. #2. The Awareness Love Bliss group will point out in detail why so few people succeed in ending the ego delusion even after they have studied the teachings of great sages like: Sri Ramana Maharshi, Sri Muruganar, Sri Sadhu Om, Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj and Sri Annamalai Swami. For example if 10,000 people study Sri Ramana’s teachings and only one of those people end the ego illusion in this lifetime and are free of all suffering and sorrow, remaining in eternal-love-bliss, and the other 9,999 are not freed of the ego illusion in this lifetime, the question is: why do the 9,999 miss the opportunity to end the ego in this lifetime? What strategies does the ego use to preserve its imaginary self? How does the ego distort the teachings to make them ineffective? What are the differences in approach between that one in 10,000 who succeed in bringing the ego illusion to an end and the 9,999 who do not? The way people miss is similar regardless of what spiritual path they are on, therefore the detailed pointing out in the Awareness Love Bliss group will be of benefit to everyone on every spiritual path. #2. Ramana Maharshi’s teachings will be looked at, one passage, one saying at a time and then the question: how do people distort the passage or miss the essential import of the passage will be explored. One of the ways people become part of the 9,999 instead of the one, is to not take enough care in choosing the source of Sri Ramana Maharshi’s teachings. Great care will be taken in the choice of the source of Sri Ramana Maharshi’s teachings and a detailed explanation of the reason for such a choice and the importance of such a choice will be given. Sri Ramana’s advice regarding the reading and discussing of spiritual teachings as found at this link: http://uarelove1.tripod.com/READING_AND_DISCUSSING.htm will be followed at the Awareness Love Bliss group. Following the advice Sri Ramana Maharshi gave at the above link will make the Awareness Love Bliss group unique. If you would like to take a unique and extraordinary journey into honesty and looking at the ego’s dishonesty, and seeing what leads to liberation and what does not: click this link: awarenesslovebliss Then click “join this group”. Take care, with Love, Michael L. New and Improved Mail - Send 10MB messages! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
