Ramana Wisdom
( fragments - page 1 )

 

There is no creation in the state of Realization. When one sees the world, one does not see one's self. When one sees the Self the world is not seen. So see the Self and realize that there has been no creation.

* * *

The wise regards the giving up of the notion "I am the body" as exhaling, self-enquiry as inhaling and abidance in the Heart as natural subsidence.

* * *

Unless you exist you cannot ask questions. So you must admit your own existence. That existence is the Self. It is already realized.

* * *

Being what one already is, is effortless, since being is always present and always experienced.

* * *

In the eye of the jnani there are no others, so there is nothing like mingling with others for him.

* * *

There is nothing nor is there anyone to become enlightened since the Self is already realized.

* * *

Your duty is to be and not to be this or that. The method is summarized in "Be still".

* * *

There is no teacher nor is there anyone to be taught, therefore there is no teaching.

* * *

Consciousness is always Self-Consciousness.
If you are consciousness of anything, you are essentially conscious of yourself.

* * *

The Absolute is always with you, in you and you are yourself the Absolute.

* * *

Where is becoming? The thinker is all the while the same as the Real.
He ultimately realizes that fact.
