Essence of Sri Ramana Maharishi's Teachings and concepts - Part 5

Updated: May 7, 2021

1 . There is no distinction between the Heart and God. God is consciousness, also known as the Heart.

2. For realization of the self, there are four paths namely Jnana(knowledge), yoga(practice), Bhakthi(devotion) and Karma(actions).

3. Action can only result in action, not in cessation of action. By renunciation of action, one attains liberation, not by action.

4. Thoughts alone make up the mind.And of all the thoughts "I” thought is the root.

5. Body, senses, mind, breath,Sleep are insentinent and unreal.

6. Being is awareness.

7. God shines ever as the pure self.

8. In pure knowledge, there is no object to be seen/known

9. All the Ego gone, living as that(self consciousness)alone is called penance.

10. There is no knowledge without ignorance and without knowledge ignorance cannot be.

11. Past and future are dependent on the present.

12. Ever present is present.

13. Without us there is no time or space. If we are only bodies we are caught up in time and

space. In fact we exist timeless and space less.

14. God is seen by one who sees the Self.

15. For the one who has lost the Ego and seen the self, is none other the God.

16. How to see the God or the Self ? As the Self is one without a second,

it is impossible to see it .To see God , is to be consumed by Him.

17. How can we know the Light of Light( the Self ) with the borrowed light of the mind ?

18. If we are the doers of deeds, we should reap the fruits they yield.

19. Once you realize the Self, the sense of agency is lost and the three karmas slip away. Eternal is this Liberation.

20. Liberation is the extinction of the Ego.

21. There is one God, the knower.

22.In the company of Sages, attachment and illusion vanish.

Therefore seek the company of Sages.

23. The mind gets the light from the Self. Hence the Self is called the light of light.

24. When the ego is removed the consciousness of the Self bestows Liberation of soul.

25. When the Ego dies and becomes that, the self of pure awareness,That alone abides.

26. When the world appears (to be real) the Self does not appear.

When the self appears, the world does not appear.

27. Self=Atman.

28. Ego or the mind arises in the Heart. That is the place of origin.

29. When the Mind stays in the Heart, names and forms disappear.

30. Other than Enquiry method, there are no adequate means to control the mind

31. Breath is the Gross form of mind.

32. All that one gives to others, one gives to one’s Self.

33. When the self is there, the thoughts of bondage goes, with that the thought of freedom also .

34.Thoughts of bondage and freedom last only as long as

One feels I am Bound.

35. Heart is the source for mind and breath.
