I feel him present around me !

Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Ramanaya

 

Namaste,

 

This is Leaf, I just got a new screen name though. Anyway, the sharings, let

me say they have really helped me a lot, just almost as much as the quotes,

because a lot of the questions other people ask are some of my questions too,

and some of their experience hlp me know what I'm suppose to do next. Just

commenting...and I have absolutely not a clue why there is so much

disapproval, there is already mostly quotes and not that much sharing. Okay

that is all from me, and I'll be signing my name as Prem instead of Leaf, ,a

slight change.

 

Namaste

 

Namo Ramana

 

bless'd be

 

too many partings...

 

Prem

* (?) I am finding this thread exremely odd... Is Advaita an inhuman path in

the sense that anything outside of a direct quote from Ramana is somehow

threatening? Although I am relatively new to Ramana as my guru I have not

seen anything in the written works that would indicate this as desirable.

Ramana strips away illusion better than any teacher I'm aware of, but I

haven't encountered any indication that one should only parrot what he said,

or live in some kind of vacuum. Yes, he made it VERY clear that none of this

is real, only the self remains.... but his last comment in

"Talks" was to be like an actor in a drama free from love or hatred. I just

don't see where there's any need to reject our humanity (outside of

recognizing its limitations as not anything final or real.) I for one enjoy

the personal levels expressed here

as well as the quotes.

Dear Vicki,

 

> I don't see myself coming back with my quotes on this list .

 

That's a shame!... But all is His will.

 

Ever Yours in Sri Bhagavan,

Miles

In the literal meaning of the phrase...

 

For God's sake!

 

Enough!

Dear Poly ,

what I meant has nothing to do with quotes at all,

let alone parroting.
