Guest guest Posted November 7, 2002 Report Share Posted November 7, 2002 Dear Aloha You wrote "Teachers give warnings for almost everything. some say if you meditate on the third eye you will go bonkers-----'' Some how I cannot equate Sri Ramana with " Teachers who give warnings for almost every thing" He always advised Self-Inquiry. To those who are not ripe to take up that and who said that they were finding it difficult to follow Self-Inquiry he used to suggest them to continue what they were doing. >From the way he replied to devotees, his replies always were meant for the specific questioner keeping in view the stage of saadhana the devotee was in. When I accept Him as Guru his word is everything for me. If He said Pranayama should be used only for limited purposes, as I already mentioned, it is God's word for me. I always question myself how Sri Bagavan expects me to do my saadhana. At times even if I deviate I remeber His words and try to follow his advice. The greatest respect I can pay to my Guru is to follow his teachings in thought, word and deed. I want to use the few years left on this earth to do saadhana as suggested by Him and I do not want to lose time in experimenting with teachings of diffeent teachers. As Sri Ramakrishna said- if we dig too many pits we may not go far and instead go deep in one to find the treasure. I blieve that getting such faith in one Guru is a blessing bestowed by Him. Jai Sri Ramana Ramana Sarma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
