Guest guest Posted April 10, 2002 Report Share Posted April 10, 2002 " I do not want meek and humble disciples, I want them to be powerful, as I am. I do not make disciples, I make Gurus." This has to be my favorite quote. Aloha, Alton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 11, 2002 Report Share Posted April 11, 2002 Hi Alton, Thank you for that email (below). I want to share some of my experience with you and see what you think. After reading "Talks with Ramana Maharshi"(actually during it) i had the experience of the Self for three days -- it was actually a slow, gradual feeling for quite a while prior to that feeling (it hasnt left me, well, some of that feeling has). Well, now i am re-reading "Talks" and it is now a deeper experience. I do see, however, other dialogues and writings regarding him ( i have Arthur Osborne's "Ramana Maharshi and the Path of Self-knowledge" and "The Teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi" bye David Godman) -- however, i havent read these books -- maybe dabbled a little.....reading Talks and that direct experience is hard to put down for those other books. However, i was struck by that quote that is probably your favorite and wondered where you got it....and, what you think i would like per my little note that i have now written you. Any aids to Realization would be helpful. Thank you again for that post. Kind regards, Jay Dinneen --- Alton Slater <leenalton wrote: > " I do not want meek and humble disciples, I want > them to be powerful, as I am.
