Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` Solitude is in the mind of man. One might be in the thick of the world and maintain serenity of mind. Such a one is in solitude. Another may stay in a forest, but still be unable to control his mind. Such a man cannot be said to be in solitude. Solitude is a function of the mind. A man attached to desires cannot get solitude wherever he may be, whereas a detached man is always in solitude. - Sri Ramana Maharshi ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` This quotation is from "Be As You Are" The Teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi edited by David Godman Arkana, 1985 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
