What is ego suff and what isnt?

[Guest guest]

What exactly is this site all about?

 

From what I have experienced untill now

it seems like a blackboard where every class member can

right down his (her) knowledge about the teachings of advaita

and ask questions if something is not clear.

So far so good,sometimes if some one acts without respect

he or she gets abandoned while some of the rest loughs in

his(her) palm,not so good.

 

And all that goes on and on paying very little attencion to the

*small* things that are happening to each one of us

in the everyday life,that are of such a tremendous importance

actually just as important as the rest that is beeing posted here,Why?

 

Is it becouse most of us think that is only ego stuff that no one

wants to know of?

 

I came to tirhuvannamalai also becouse I wanted to see how

Bhagavans teachings work on other people lifes,

what i have found so far is "super advanced" spiritual

seekers beeing whrapped in spiritual clothes not beeing

able to admitt even to themselves how lonely they feel

in there state of "high spirituality",I have found the ramanashram devotees

beeing so busy selling books on Baghavans teachings that didnt even know

where the samadhi of Anamalai swami is,so many days here I didnt see

one of them smiling or beeeing friendly,not so good..

 

And yet I prefer to ignore that becouse all is one..

 

I had planned to stay longer but I decited to live earlier becouse

"my" little Ramanashram at home is urgendly calling me back...

 

Jai,Jai Ramanaji.

 

Sandosham in any way.

Dear Sandosham,

 

Thank you for your letter. This whole Satsangh is blessed by the grace of Ramana - and in his eyes we are all equal as the Self. The only problem is we don't realise it- because the vasanas obscure the effulgence hence our need for our Self Enquiry and Surrender.

 

We are all his Devotees.

 

Warm regards and all best wishes,

 

Yours in Bhagavan,,

Dear Alan,

 

I fully agree with your perception about Tony's tending to

take an absolute standpoint, occasionally some of us hier

also tend to do this..

 

Allow me please to express my gratitude for your exemplary

service to everyone and to everything hier.

I guess that true devotion like yours can hardly be grasped

by the relative mind.

 

Sandosham,

Dear Tony,

 

I love your postings but you tend always to take an absolute standpoint . The term Devotee has been used consistently right through The Guru-Pupil relationship, with Bhagavan's consent. It means we are devoted to the Guru and his Teaching. In the Bhakti-Marg one can use Dualistic terms.

 

Love,

Ramanasramam.>Namaste,If one is a true devotee of Ramana's teachings then one cannot call oneself a devotee at all as that is dualistic. Ramana taught there levels of creation...1. Somebody a 'God' created it all.2 It rises with our perception of it and 3. Ajativada--- --it never happened at all. Ramana said 3 is the truth but that most could't grasp that...Tony
