The 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.
Ramana MaharshiWhen there are thoughts, it is distraction: when there are no thoughts, it is meditation.
Ramana MaharshiThere is neither creation nor destruction, neither destiny nor free will, neither path nor achievement. This is the final truth.
Ramana MaharshiHaving set one's family in consonance with the community, he should make his family prosperous to ensure the prosperity of the community.
Ramana MaharshiThe world is so unhappy because it is ignorant of the true Self. Manโs real nature is happiness. Happiness is inborn in the true Self. Manโs search for happiness is an unconscious search for his true Self. The true Self is imperishable; therefore, when a man finds it, he finds a happiness which does not come to an end.
