SRI RAMANA – NEITHER A PERSON NOR A CONCEPT

 

V. Ganesan, Managing Editor, The Mountain Path wrote the following in

the Preface to Bhagavan Sri Ramana – A Pictorial Biography

published by Sri Ramanasramam:

 

A Jnani such as Bhagavan Ramana is neither a person nor a concept,

but the truth of pure existence; thus to have darshan of Sri Ramana

is to be awakened to the truth of one's own existence. Darshan need

not necessarily be physical; any association with the Master is

sufficient to bring one into the living presence of Truth and Light.

To think, to talk, to read, or to focus one's attention on him, is a

great support on the path…Sri Bhagavan's life in all its simplicity

and purity is a movement in silence…His life is not a chapter in

history to be recorded, nor is it restricted by any geographical

location. His life is a perennial flowing steam, refreshing and

purifying those who partake of its bounty.
