Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 I am from Boliva Sudamerica, my name is Carlos Rafael,I know about Ramana 20 years ago, when I had 18 years old, i understood the most important to know us is when you concentred your mind in your heart always, all the time , "who am I" you can gradual elimination the vasanas and training your mind when you be in meditation is easy. Thank you for your e-mails christiane cameron <christianecameron (AT) mac (DOT) com> wrote: " It will be noticed that the mental articulation of "Who am I" is in the initial stages used for the rejection of thoughts and in the next stages "Who am I", meaning what is the source of the "I thought " is used for training the mind to dive into the Heart, resulting in the gradual attenuation of the mind and elimination of vasanas due to the exposure of the mind to the light of consciousness while diving. Thereafter stillness of mind is obtained when the mind is engaged in focusing on the Heart without any mental articulation.from "The Technique of Maya Yoga" , N.R. Narayana AiyerBhagawan says in "Truth Revealed" , "To get the mind introverted and to fix it with concentration on the Self (Heart) is Atma Vichara." And introverting in search of its source, the mind gets merged there and becomes thought-free; thereafter Self-Realization results.Monsoonhouse Int.Kovalam/Keralacontact: christianecameron (AT) mac (DOT) comCommunity email addresses: Post message: RamanaMaharshi Subscribe: RamanaMaharshi- Un: RamanaMaharshi List owner: RamanaMaharshi-ownerShortcut URL to this page: http://www./community/RamanaMaharshi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
