The state we call realization is simply being oneself, not knowing anything or becoming anything.
Ramana MaharshiYou need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your present thoughts, that is all.
Ramana MaharshiIf you observe awareness steadily, this awareness itself becomes the Guru that will reveal the Truth.
Ramana MaharshiHappiness is your real nature. You identify with yourself with the body and mind, feel it's limitations, and suffer. Realize your true self in order to open the store of happiness. That true self is the reality, the Supreme Truth, which is the self of all the world you now see, the self of all the selves, the One real, the Supreme, the Eternal self - as distinct from the ego or the bodily idea for the self.
