Guest guest Posted October 7, 2001 Report Share Posted October 7, 2001 Q: If grace is so important, what is the role of individual effort? A: Effort is necessary up to the state of realisation. Even then the Self should spontaneously become evident, otherwise happiness will not be complete. Up to that state of spontaneity there must be effort in some form or another. There is a state beyond our efforts or effortlessness. Until it is realised effort is necessary. After tasting such bliss, even once, one will repeatedly try to regain it. Having once experienced the bliss of peace no one wants to be out of it or to engage in any other activity. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ from ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Be As You Are The Teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ NEW from GeoCities - quick and easy web site hosting, just $8.95/month. http://geocities./ps/info1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
