Advaita - Vivekachudamani

[Guest guest]

"For him who aspires after liberation,

there is no other way of release from bondage but knowledge of the

identity of Brahman and Self. Therefore, you too by your own

experience, know your self as always "I am Brahman", "Brahman I am",

"Brahman alone I am"."

Collected Works of Ramana Maharshi (from Vivekachudamani-Sri Ramana

translated it into Tamil prose)

In the introduction Bhagavan Ramana writes: "Mere book learning never

yields the bliss; it can only be realized through self-inquiry or

vichara, which consists of sravana or devoted attention to the precepts

of the guru, manana, or deep contemplation and nididhyasana or

cultivation of equanimity in the Self."

Love to all
