What does stillness mean?

 

 

 

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

 

Your duty is to be and not to be this or that.

'I am that I am' sums up the whole truth. The

method is summed up in the words 'Be still'.

What does stillness mean? It means destroy

yourself. Because any form or shape is the

cause for trouble. Give up the notion that 'I

am so and so'. All that is required to realize

the Self is to be still. What can be easier than

that?

 

- Sri Ramana Maharshi

May all be happy.

May all be without disease.

May all share in the well-being.

May none be in misery of any kind whatsoever.

May peace and peace and peace be everywhere.

 

- Invocation from the Upanishads
