Ramanna Mahirshi and his teachings

[Guest guest]

I'm posting the contents of my essay "Silence...the talk within".

This directly relates to Ramanna Mahirshi and his teachings.

 

Silence...the talk within

 

All messages .. words from “God”

The “Eternal Messages”, the words from “God” are ever flowing and

trying to contact you i.e. your “Atman” within. If you can tune in

... You establish the contact. Outwardly you appear to the World as

an introvert, keeping silence all the time ... Actually, you (your

“Atman” within) is talking to “God, the Creator of the Universe” all

the time. This truth can only be experienced by the “self realized”.

You who wants to realize “self” at the earliest and desire talking

to “God” must solve the riddle ... “Who Am I” .

 

 

Once the truth dawns upon you by the “Grace of God”, You are

initiated by “God” itself by full awakening of your “Kundalini”.

This is an irreversible process. Once you are “enlightened”, you can

not revert back to your daily chores as in the past .. From now on

every phenomenon happening in this World has relative importance for

you.

 

 

You continue doing daily chores with unattached attitude towards

everything. You now perceive the happenings in the World similar to

watching a program on the television screen ... Always knowing that

program on the screen is only a reflection of the happenings

somewhere else. This some where else is the subtle truth of life.

This other World which consists of “God, the Creator” and all

“Atman’s” is the only truth, the only true world .. Our physical

World only being a reflection of the happenings in this other World.

Think and scan yourself from within .. You shall realize the truth

one day.

 

 

Talk within .. the richest grace of “God”

 

The present World where we live is only a manifestation created by

“God”, a channel for all “Atman’s” to cleanse themselves. It serves

no other purpose. All “Atman’s” manifest in this World, our “Mother

Earth” only to liberate themselves. Liberation is only possible by

removal of Ego, the “I” within and perception of the “true self”.

Once you are a realized person, you try to liberate self at the

earliest from the bondage of further manifestations .. thus

fulfilling the “Eternal aim of the Atman” .. to rejoin the source

from where it originated i.e. “God”.

 

 

Every “Atman” is connected to the Lord by a diving string. “God”

talks to us not by mouth but when you are silent. Only when we are

physically motionless can the “Atman” contact and talk to “God”. It

is not you a physical being but the “Atman” within which converses

with “God, the Almighty”. How does anyone know you are talking to

“God” internally ! Externally it may be difficult for a lay person

to recognize a “self realized person” but you shall feel it in the

air. The radiance emitted shall make you oblivious of the fact that

conversation between a “self realized person” and “God” is taking

place. The divinity speaks for itself.

 

 

Complete surrender to “God” .. is a must

 

You must faith in “the Lord” to learn the truth. One who does not

read Sacred Scriptures, attend gatherings and discussions .. Is he

really an introvert ? Which is more potent .. Mingling with those

who are still searching for “God” in Scriptures and Discourses or

one who can communicate with “God” in silence ! Silence is serene ..

only if you can talk to “God”. The silent blessings of a realized

soul carries lot more weight than mere blessings of an ignorant Guru

distributing prasad or performing a miracle to falsely impress his

devotees.

 

 

“Absolute” faith in “the Lord” or “Guru” is a must. Guru must be a

realized soul else you would be wasting time on alter of falsehood.

Doubt kills the contact between you and your “Guru”. God is

omnipresent, yet you cannot see it in person. Still it blesses all

those who have absolute faith in him. One who has absolute faith in

God .. realizes self early. One who realizes self .. Understands the

true nature of “God”.

 

 

Sage “Ramanna Mahirshi” was a true embodiment of the doctrine of

“Silence” the talk within. People from far fledged areas thronged to

his abode with a list of questions but, when they neared the sage ..

The questions melt away and people realized their answers through

the silent blessings of the sage.

 

Contemplation .. the silent talk

 

Sage Ramanna Mahirshi was a master in the art of Contemplation. His

mere presence invoked the grace of “God”. You could feel the

presence of “God” when in his abode. External blessings were

valueless for him. He would invoke the spirituality all the time for

the benefit of mankind. He was a truly self realized soul of the

highest order. Though his physical self was ever present in his

abode but his “Atman” always dwelt in the “Kingdom of God”.

 

 

How many sadhus you come across in your daily life practice

Contemplation ? Most may not be aware of the meaning of

contemplation. You as a laymen could feel ill will in their minds

towards most .. Can such so called sadhus ever come near to “God” !

They may utter “God’s” name from their mouth but their mind is

elsewhere .. They are ignorant as to the true nature of “God”, the

Creator”. “God” bless all these souls who in their search for “God”

fail to understand the basic rudiments of spirituality that .. “God”

lives in all”. To serve him .. You must learn to serve humanity with

humility and without any selfish motive.
