"Seek my grace within the Heart. I will drive away your darkness and show you the light. This is my responsibility."

Bhagavan Sri Ramana

When the mind is kept away from its preoccupations, it becomes quiet. If you do not disturb this quiet, and stay in it, you find that it is permeated with a light and love you have never known. And yet, you recognize it at once as your own nature.

Nisargadatta Maharaj

... I am the all-pervasive consciousness in which all bodies and minds in the world are appearing and disappearing. I am that consciousness which remains unchanged and unaffected by these appearances and disappearances. Stabilize yourself in that conviction. That is all you need to do! Annamalai Swami

Im Herzen scheint ein Licht, sich selber inne, einzig wirklich: das bist du.

- - - - - Sri Ramana Maharshi (übertragen von Heinrich Zimmer)

Space comes with a "yes! to what is.

Eckhart Tolle

Of what avail is knowing things

Other than the Self? And the Self being known,

What other thing is there to know?

That one light that shines as many selves,

Seeing this Self within

As Awareness' lighting flash;

The play of Grace; the ego's death;

The blossoming of Bliss.

from Atma Vidya (Self Knowledge) of Sri Ramana Maharshi

Look to your Self for the answers. Everything is within you. Learn to be still. Find out who's worried, who fears, who's unhappy, who's depressed, who's sick and you will say, "I am, but who am I?" and follow the I to its source. And the "I" will disappear of its own accord. The realization will come, that you are absolute reality and that all is well and everything is unfolding as it should.

Robert Adams

Stay open and quiet, that is all. What you seek is so near you, that there is no place for a way.

Nisargadatta Maharaj

If you can only learn to look within, if you can only learn to dive deep within yourself and identify with the Self, merge with the Self, I can't begin to tell you the joy you would feel. There is nowhere you have to go. There is no one you really have to meet. There is no thing you have to do. You simply have to be yourself. You are the joy of the world.

Robert Adams

The only useful purpose of the present birth is to turn within and realize the Self. All that is required is to be still. There is nothing else to do.

Sri Ramana Maharshi
