Call it by any name, God, Self, the Heart, or the Seat of Consciousness, it is all the same.
Ramana MaharshiYou need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your present thoughts, that is all.
Ramana MaharshiGod's grace consists in the fact that He shines in the heart of every one as the Self; that power of grace does not exclude any one, whether good or otherwise.
Ramana MaharshiYou are the witness of the three bodies: the gross, the subtle, and the causal, and of the three times: past, present and future, and also this void. In the story of the tenth man, when each of them counted and thought they were only nine, each one forgetting to count himself, there is a stage when they think one is missing and do not know who it is; and that corresponds to the void. We are so accustomed to the notion that all that we see around us is permanent and that we are this body, that when all this ceases to exist we imagine and fear that we also have ceased to exist.
