The state we call realisation issimply being oneself, not knowing anythingor becoming anything. If one has realised,one is that which alone is and which alone hasalways been. One cannot describe that state.One can only be that. Of course, we looselytalk of Self-realisation, for want of a betterterm. How to 'real-ise' or make real thatwhich alone is real?"~ Sri Ramana Maharshi, "Be As You Are"The Teachings of Sri Ramana MaharshiEdited by David Godman Ah, this is sublime intelligence and love transcending. We can only hope that others can come to appreciate, or better still, fully experience this in their own lives. This moment of realization is sacred because once achieved, it cannot ever be stolen or taken from one...but it can to a great degree be shared. That is the true magic!
