Bhagavan is always crystal clear and knows the path inside and out, the beginning, the end and the middle is all the same for Sri Ramana. The Heart of all is the same Heart, shining forth as pure awareness, self satisfied, that is all beauty abiding in its own nature as It Self. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">Sometimes people on these lists are heard to say such and such person or master has explained the method of realization or the path better, etc., etc. Each to their own. It never occurs to me to give importance to anyone else’s words other than Bhagavan and his genuine devotees. I do not know how if someone is a devotee of Bhagavan, and understands the pure teachings of the Self, they can turn to anyone else. I am very biased on this but how fortunate I feel. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">God bless you all with all good things 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">Yours in Bhagavan 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> Love to all 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">Harsha 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> font-family:Tahoma;font-weight:bold">christiane cameron [christianecameron (AT) mac (DOT) com] Tuesday, January 11, 2005 6:47 PM advaitajnana Cc: RamanaMaharshi [RamanaMaharshi] jnana 12.0pt"> 12.0pt"> Q.

Just as fire remains without scorching against incantations or other devices but scorches otherwise, so also the Self remains veiled by vasanas and reveals itself when there are no vasanas.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 To this one, every word uttered by Sri Ramana Maharshi shines with the luster of the absolute Truth. His teachings can lead one out of the darkness of ignorance into the light of Reality. Who could ask for more? Samadhi Ma --- In , "Harsha" wrote: > Thanks Chris.
