I appreciate all advice. Well, I take it in. One can never be sure

when one will need it. I always keep a Holy Book at the bedside just

in case the Shiva Shakes, not to be confused with the Shakti Shakes,

strike at 4 a.m in the morning.

 

Interestingly, this spiritual health warning is nearly always given

by Papaji's followers. Something, in me irons out any tendencies to

identify. Anyway, how to identify with being a Teacher? It is a

ridiculous profession. I am most ashamed. No wonder, Ramana ran away,

shaved up, threw away his clothes and hid in cave.

And some have built skyscrapers!

But that sounds suspiciously like "seeking" only under a different

guise. Whatever became of the words "Call off the Search"?

 

Identification happens! Shift Happens! Who is it that cares anyway?

 

Is Ramana Ashram now a Chinese Launderette for the daily maintenance

of Awakened Souls? Real sannyasins are naked!

 

Annamalai Swami was one of Ramana's closest disciples. He got IT, and

was told to move on. He set up next to Ramana Ashram but never again

visited. Why should he? Even Ramana ignored him when they crossed

paths on the Hill.

 

Didn't Papaji say "Nothing Happened"? So is anything really drowning

daily?

But who cares if you do indulge?
