The 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.
Ramana MaharshiYour duty is to be, and not to be this or that. I Am That I Am sums up the whole truth; the method is summarized in Be Still.
Ramana MaharshiGood thoughts keep off bad thoughts. They must themselves disappear before the state of realization.
Ramana Maharshi...the Lord of the Universe carries the entire burden of this world. You imagine you do. You can hand all your burdens over to His care. Whatever you have to do, you will be made an instrument for doing it at the right time. Do not think you cannot do it unless you have the desire to do it. Desire does not give you the strength for doing. The entire strength is the Lord's.
Ramana Maharshi
