Actions and Words

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

Ramana may have said Be still and know who I am etc. But unless

there is honest sadhana these are just words. Actions speak louder

than words even in illusion. One can learn or parrot every word that

Ramana spoke but if one doesn't work on removing one's own samskaras

and vasanas, they are just words that somebody else spoke and don't

belong to one.

 

Even Kali ignored Sr Ramakrishna Paramahamsa because of some actions

that weren't approved of.

 

One of the easiest ways is with the Ashtang yoga or even the

Buddhist precepts but they have to be taken literally and completed.

 

I personally believe in the Ajativada spoken of by Ramana but even

if my mind knows it to be true, the samskaras and vasanas prevent

the realisation. If my action continue to produce vasanas of this

kind then the roots will sprout leaves and even trees of

karma........ONS...Tony.
