Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Dear all, there is a new group dedicated to Jesus Christ and Ramana Maharshi, the sage of Arunachala. It is interfaith, but its purpose is the inner attitude of contemplation/prayer/atma vichara (self-inquiriy) including the Heart Prayer, the Philokalia and the Christian Mystics together with the teaching of Sri Ramana Maharshi, who is much in the same line. At times there may also be meditations on icons of the Orthodox Church. It is meant as a group for practicers to deepen their spiritual practice, also share about it in a silent atmosphere of same-minded people. The foundation of this group is a personal heart-matter. Let's see. If you are interested please have a look at: Ramana_and_Christianity/ love to all Gabriele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 I recently read "A Search In Secret India" by Paul Brunton. Brunton was an early 20th century...1920's or so...British spiritual seeker who traveled throughout India and finally came to rest in Sri Ramana Maharshi's ashram. Brunton spent a period of time in the association of this saint, and by his own account attained transcendental insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Sri Ramana Maharshi's statement that "there is neither destiny, nor free will" has a certain magnificence and majesty and grace and hints at the Heart, the Self-Knowledge, "The Original Face" whose very essence is that of Freedom. Sat-Chit-Ananda-Nityam-Poornum! Harsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
