Ramana MaharshiIf the ego rises, all else will also rise; if it subsides, all else will also subside.
Ramana MaharshiBy constantly keep one's attention on the Source, the ego is dissolved in that Source like a salt-doll in the sea.
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.
