Aim high, aim at the highest, and all lower aims are thereby achieved. It is looking below on the stormy sea of differences that makes you sink. Look up, beyond these and see the One Glorious Real, and you are saved. Ramana Maharshi
There is neither creation nor destruction, neither destiny nor free will, neitherpath nor achievement. This is the final truth. Ramana Maharshi
Ramana Maharshi quote: "You need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your..."
You need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your present thoughts, that is all. Ramana Maharshi
Mind is consciousness which has put on limitations. You are originally unlimited and perfect. Later you take on limitations and become the mind. Ramana Maharshi
Ramana Maharshi quote: "The pure mind is itself Brahman; it therefore follows that..."
The pure mind is itself Brahman; it therefore follows that Brahman is not other than the mind of the sage. Ramana Maharshi
