You can see a link to a site devoted to Swami Ramatirtha from our links page at http://www.vivekananda.btinternet.co.uk/home.htm Swami Rama-tirtha was a Mathematics professor in Lahore and came to the West in around 1905... He did not start any movement but his teachings and saying are very inspiring. You may have difficulty in getting books about his life and teachings but if you visit the site - they may be able to help you. jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 My favourite has been the Tattva Bodha by Shankaracharya. It is so simple yet delivers the goods. After this introduction comes the great Vivekachoodamani.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 There are also other classic texts that Sri Ramana Maharshi used to refer to, such as Yoga Vasistha (Teachings of Sri Vasistha to Sri Rama), Ashtavakra Gita and Ellam Ondre or All is One (a short and nice Tamil treatise). I would also recommend Sri Ramana Maharshi's Ulladu Narpadu (Reality in Forty Verses). >K Kathirasan ADM NCS <kkathir >Ramakrishna >Ramakrishna >RE: [ramakrishna] Advaita Texts >Wed, 9 May 2001 08:50:48 +0800 > >My favourite has been the Tattva Bodha by Shankaracharya.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2001 Report Share Posted May 10, 2001 Dear Jay: It happen that I just received the last number of the VEDANTA magazine, edited by Swami Dayatmananda, from Ramakrishna Vedanta Centre, Bourne End, and there I saw a wonderful article on Sri Rama Tirtha, by John Philips. I hope this article can be useful to you. Best wishes, Hérberton from Curitiba-Brazil.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2001 Report Share Posted May 11, 2001 There is one short but excellent book on Yoga Vashishtha by C G Joshi. It is in Marathi and titled as YogaVasithache Hridagat. There also one by wirtten by Dravid. Both are by far the best commentaries on YogaVashitha. After reading those I felt that Youga vasistha is perhaps equally important a text like Gita for all Hindus.
