" Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi " and " Day by Day with Bhagavan " Namaste Harsha IMHO, I can agree in part with what you have said depending on whether one is talking relatively or absolutely. The Self manifests as everybody and everything, at a certain 'level'; However I don't think the Self manifested as Ramana anymore than it does as Harsha. Ramana, like all of us ran on prarabda karma, although he had a purified vijnanamayakos, which allowed a more truthful approach to all. The Self provides the energy as such, and as the 'Ground' it is a witness not a participant. It is the programmed destiny of karma that Ramana operated on. It is the Universal Mind which operates in Ramana for there is only karma and prana in the universe, the Self being Sakshin or Witness.............ONS...Tony.
