Ocean of Who Am I?

font-family:Nimrod">Sri Bhagavan's work Who Am I? was written

as a series of questions-and-answers in the very early twentieth century, and

subsequently gathered into a book.

font-family:Nimrod">In the 1920's, He reworked these bite-size chunks into a

connected essay, and this form has appeared in the Collected Works

in Tamil, and indeed it has also appeared in English in the Ashram publication Words of Grace, which

is a small volume containing the works, Who Am I?, Self-Enquiry and Spiritual Instruction.

font-family:Nimrod">Some devotees find that the essay version of Who Am I? is

a veritable cache of inner dynamite, for whom it stimulates the enquiry process whilst

working through the actual text, which flows through in a continuous chain.

font-family:Nimrod">When I went to the book depot recently to purchase it

again, I found that the volume has sold out and is awaiting reprint, and it was

found after some considerable searching that the wee jewel was found here.

12.0pt">

font-family:Nimrod">I felt that this essay must surely be readily available on

the net; however found that all the Google’d files point to the Q & A

version only. Is there anything which I’ve missed? Does anyone know a

link which points to the essay version?
