Thus Spake Ramana

[Guest guest]

It is you who should see the sun.

Can spectacles and the sun

see for you?

You yourself have to see

your true nature.

Not much aid is required

for doing it.

 

......people want absolute

and permanent happiness.

This does not reside in objects

but in the Absolute.

Our nature is primarily one,

whole, and blissful.

Hence Self-realization

is bliss.
