Tim/Ramana Maharshi

[Guest guest]

Dear Tim,

For me, it's more than his teachings. It has something to do with

the effect of his presence.

 

Over and over, people walked up to him and *knew* the kinds of

things we try to talk ourselves into knowing here. The big talk

book is filled with episodes like that. Something remarkable

obviously went on with that guy.

 

And I feel a little of that while I read his written words. Something

seems to come off the page and infect me.

 

Love,

 

Laura
