Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Dear Rob , it does state in the inroduction to Talks "the whole had the seal of approval of Sri Bhagavan himself,as the records were always shown him for his approval or the necessary alteration after they had been entered in the notebook",your correspomdent does not quote this .However the works written by Bhagavan himself in Collected Works do not suffer from interpretation only from the problems of translation .We must remember that Bhagavan had a good working knowledge of English having been educated in an American Mission School until he went to Arunachala ,and was well capable of correcting English translators and interpreters .Chadwich recounts in his Memoirs that Bhagavan was scrupulous in correcting his Poetic Rendings of Ramana's Writings..Hope this throws some light on a thorny problem.Every best wish and regards ,as ever ,Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
