Quotes Ramana

[Guest guest]

" Every new and old theory is subjected to a

certain critical test in the light of dry reason

before it is given any credence, or accepted

as a working hypothesis.

The Maharshi himself has given its rightful

place to reason in his approach to philosophy

and enjoins us to search within our own

selves what we really are.

our own self-effort and direct observation

of our mental life

Waking consciousness is but a small fragment

of the real man; greater than his waking mind

and consciousness, is Turiya, the forth state.

That would be a complete seeing of, " thou art that " ,

that would be Self-realization; where trouble ends.

Ancient Hindu thought and philosophy, is one

that has come to be recognized not only by

modern psychology, but also by modern science

in the West.
