The greatest obstacle to enlightenment is getting past your delusion that you are not already enlightened.
Ramana MaharshiNo one succeeds without effort... Those who succeed owe their success to perseverance.
Ramana MaharshiNobody doubts that he exists, though he may doubt the existence of God. If he finds out the truth about himself and discovers his own source, this is all that is required.
Ramana MaharshiTurn the mind inward and cease thinking of yourself as the body; thereby you will come to know that the self is ever happy. Neither grief nor misery is experienced in this state.
