Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 on the Quest Question 1: Should I go an asking 'Who am I?' without answering? Who asks whom? Which bhavana (attitude) should be in the mind at the time of enquiry? What is 'I' the self or the ego? Answer: In the enquiry 'Who am I?', 'I' is the ego. The question really means, what is the source or origin of this ego? You need not have any bhavana in the mind. All that is required is, you must give up the bhavana that you are the body, of such and such a description, with such and such a name, etc. There is no need to have a bhavana about your real nature. It exists as it always does; it is real and no bhavana. ************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* Day by Day, 3.1.46 Afternoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Dear friends agree completely with what Dear Richard wrote just one comment out of practical experiences with soooo many "people on the path" and be assured am leaving them like they want to be b u t in the moment when they try to convince those who really put EVERYTHING in their search than and only than "enough is enough" ramanas statements are very clear indeed for those who are 100percent on their way back home and like our dear SadGuru Sri Ramana Maharshi stated "somewhere" and "often" the readines to walk the walk in this manner is only existing with around max one in millions..... and this is the "same" like what scienticts discovered too around 3percent of human population are ready for the "most" but as our friend Rupert Sheldrake discovered with the "morphogenetic field" a certain percentage of animal or human population is necessary to reach another stage of "evolution" b u t dear friends is this in the "plan" of SELF? is it not like this mother earth is the planet for teaching us what we need to learn in order to come HOME again to be ONE again fully with SELFGDLOVE however we call it????? your response is more than welcome yours in bhagavan michael - Richard Monday, February 08, 2010 2:59 PM Re: On Self Enquiry Very clear.
