Guest guest Posted December 14, 2002 Report Share Posted December 14, 2002 A Reminiscence by Yogi Suddhananda Bharathi in: The Ramana Way, Nov. 2002 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ November 20th Karthigai Day. The Asram is busy with the crowd that is pouring in. Bhagavan is sitting outside his cottage (the asram was then just a cottage of thatched leaves). At this time Maharshi rose up and came inside. I saw his eyes; for Maharshi to me was embodied truth. I saw the fire of knowledge radiating from those two red binocualar like eyes which saw the world around like a cinema. His eyes darted into me. Tears flowed from my eyes. Then Maharshi spoke out in a calm, mellow, silvery voice: "Bharathi take refuge in Silence. You can be here or there or anywhere. Fixed in silence, established in the inner I, you can be as you are. The world will never perturb you if you are well founded upon the tranquility within. You have sankalpa to write out your inspirations, to bring out the Bharatashakti. It is better to finish off sankalpas then and there and keep a clear sky within. But do that in silence. In gather your thoughts. Find out the thought centre and find out your Self-equipoise. In storm and turmoil be calm and silent." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
