D.: Is not destiny due to past karma?M.: If one is surrendered to God, God will look to it.D.: This being God’s dispensation, how does God undo it?M.: All are in Him only.

D.: How is God to be seen?M.: Within. If the mind is turned inward God manifests as inner consciousness.D.: God is in all - in all the objects we see around us. They say we should see God in all of them.

M.: God is in all and in the seer. Where else can God be seen? He cannot be found outside. He should be felt within. To see the objects, mind is necessary. To conceive God in them is a mental operation. But that is not real. The consciousness within, purged of the mind, is felt as God.

D.: There are, say, beautiful colours. It is a pleasure to watch them.We can see God in them.M.: They are all mental conceptions.D.: There are more than colours. I mentioned colours only as an example.

M.: They are also similarly mental.D.: There is the body also - the senses and the mind. The soul makes use of all these for knowing things.M.: The objects or feelings or thoughts are all mental conceptions. The mind rises after the rise of the I-thought or the ego. Wherefrom does the ego rise? From the abstract consciousness or Pure intelligence.

D.: Is it the soul?M.: Soul, mind or ego are mere words. There are no entities of the kind.Consciousness is the only truth.

D.: Then that consciousness cannot give any pleasure.M.: Its nature is Bliss. Bliss alone is. There is no enjoyer to enjoy pleasure.Enjoyer and joy - both merge in it.Source: TALKS WITH SRI RAMANA MAHARSHI Book
