You are all searching for the silence of the mountain. But you're looking for something outside. This silence is accessible to you right now, inside the center of your own being.
Ramana MaharshiConsciousness is indeed always with us. Everyone knows 'I am!' No one can deny his own being.
Ramana MaharshiSee who is the subject; and this inquiry leads you to pure Consciousness beyond the subject.
Ramana MaharshiTurn your vision inward and then the whole world will be full of the Supreme Spirit.
Ramana MaharshiHe that sees the Lord in the temple, the living body, by seeking Him within, can alone see Him, the Infinite, in the temple of the universe, having become the Endless Eye.
Ramana MaharshiThe experience of not forgetting consciousness alone is the state of devotion which is the relationship of unfading real love, because the real knowledge of Self, which shines as the undivided supreme bliss itself, surges up as the nature of love. Love itself is the actual form of God. That is pure bliss. Call it pure bliss, God, Self, or what you will. That is devotion, that is realization and that is everything.
