There is no reaching the Self. If Self were to be reached, it would mean that the Self is not here and now but that it is yet to be obtained. What is got afresh will also be lost. So it will be impermanent. What is not permanent is not worth striving for. So I say the Self is not reached. You are the Self; you are already That.
Ramana MaharshiThe question 'Who am I?' is not really meant to get an answer, the question 'Who am I?' is meant to dissolve the questioner.
Ramana MaharshiIf you go on working with the light available, you will meet your Master, as he himself will be seeking you.
