<3 Hridayam 108
in the silence of Being II
Bhagavan (Ramana Maharshi) spoke about turning inwards to face the Self. That is all that is needed. If we look outwards we become entangled with objects and loose awareness of the Self shining within us. But when, by repeated practice, we gain the strength to keep our focus on the Self within, we become one with it, and the darkness of Self ignorance vanishes.
