Guest guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 SWAMI RAMDAS and BHAGAVAN RAMANA Ramdas went to Ramana Maharshi in a state of complete obliviousness of the world. He felt thrills of ecstasy in his presence. The Maharshi made the awakening permanent in Ramdas. How ? Ramdas addressed Sri Bhagavan, thus : “ Maharaj ! Here stands before you a humble slave. Have pity on him. His only prayer to you is to give him your Blessings.†The Maharshi turned his beautiful eyes towards Ramdas and looked intently for a few minutes into his eyes, as though he was pouring into Ramdas his Blessings through those orbs; then, shook his head to say he had blessed. A thrill of inexpressible joy coursed through the frame of Ramdas, his whole body quivering like a leaf in the breeze…. After many years, when Swami Ramdas was well-known, some people pleaded with Swami Ramdas : “You went to Ramana Maharshi and you got Illumination. Give us Illumination like that.†Swami Ramdas replied : “You must come to Ramdas in the same spirit and in the same state as he went to the Maharshi. Then, you will also get it. Where was his heart ? How intense was his longing ? What was world to him at that time ? If you come in that state, it is all right !†—————————————- OM SRI RAM JAI RAM JAI JAI RAM Sri Ram fills and permeates the entire universe. Every particle, every atom, is thrilling with divine music. The glow of His splendour illumines all. He is the inexhaustible spring of delight, peace and bliss. He is the infinite fountain of love and compassion. All glory to Him! - Swami Ramdas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
