Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Ramanaya

 

Better than viewing Him as Other ,

Indeed the noblest attitude of all ,

is to hold Him as the "I" Within ,

The very 'I' .

 

K>Swaminathn

 

 

Instead of meditating on the difference ,if meditation is done without

difference as 'I am He,',it

is considered sacred .

 

Ganapati Muni

 

 

The lofty attitude 'He am I' is preferable to the attitude 'He is not me' .

 

Arthur Osborne

 

 

Worship of God as in no way distinct

>From him who worships , or in other words

Thinking that 'He is I", is better far

Than any other kind of worshipping .

 

Major Chadwick

 

 

To cease from imagining the Lord ,

to cease from all projections of Him

which are unreal ,

no longer to dream that we are separate,

but,in truth,to abandon

all forms of creaturely striving,

and to be surrendered unto His Being-

That is the Meditation of Truth .

 

Anantanarayanan

 

 

Instead of meditating with an attitude of duality {I am different from the

Lord],the nondual

vision 'He am I' is purifying-this is the view of the Sruti {'That thou art'}

 

Swami Dayananda

 

 

The nondualistic approach of understanding that "I AM" is God is far more

purifying and superior

than the dualistic approach of assuming the difference between God and the 'me'

and struggling to

be one with Him .

Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Ramanaya

 

 

Instead of one's usual meditation ,

Feeling 'I am different from my Lord ',

'I am He' is a great purification ,

And sounds within,an almighty chord!
