    Yes it is spiritually beneficial to recall the photo if Ramana Maharishi because he was.an enlightened soul. But it is NOT spirituallly beneficial to recall pho otos of Sadhguru because he os a clever conguru. Even worse was Osho.

    Thank you for this. I wish you never spoke of "we need to let go" but just that we need to hold on to ourself. Avoiding the confusion that there were two things to be done. Like mentioned, "letting go" is a byproduct of self-enquiry itself. These Q&A clips are really helpful!

    Truee! 🙏✨ *just a question🙋 then* - not asking about the vasanas and urges that we dissolve if we keenly look into them, but then why do we have to have food (basic limited food) atleast once in a few days Etc. Etc. (evn if we have great control over our needs (& urges)).. As in _why do we require something in physical form (bare minimum.. but yea..) from this world though it is rightly said body is just a thought then.. kindly elaborate (keen to know that!)_ ..Even the basic physicalities that we rely upon -..like water for our bodily existence n food n stuff... 🙏🕉️

    The answer is available in The Ulladhu Narpadhu, where Sri.Ramana Maharishi clearly says, the inner meaning of the statement ' Thannai thaan aridhal thalaivanai thanai aridhal' is to renounce the mind and ego and remaining in that mindless state. Neither God nor the self can ever be known as the the enquirer 'I' as the first person can never really countenance itself/himself as the third person singular. Then how can he know the Thalaivan or God? 'Naan illadha nilai, Naam adhuvayirukkum nilai', is the watchword!

    I have had extremely powerful experiences of what God truly is and what I truly am whilst simply gazing at a picture of Bhagavan. Mind blowing actually. To my mind it is utterly incredible that his presence is so firm in and as the all-encompassing non-dual reality that a mere photograph can do this.

      People may not be able to properly reply for a question such as ‘what did you a learn / study / observe, . They can say nothing but when you ask what did you notice, they have to answer something as our attention s always notice something except ourselves . Same question I asked from a professional panel who had a webinar on “I have noticed” and they couldn’t answer my question and genuinely accepted they don’t know. When they uploaded in the you tube they have omitted my question as well. But this term in English is have very significant implication on the human mind. People with ? Similar Anthakarana can be understand the teacher intention what he want to Conway. (If anyone interested I can give slink of the webinar )

      It is because every state which is not our natural state has it's roots in some kind of suffering or another. There is only one real state and that is "I am", other states are countless, which are not real and therefor are subjected to duality. Where there is duality suffering must exist because there is two, there is separation, all is relative. Absolute can never have atribute of suffering as there is no one to suffer. One who suffers exist only in relation with two. Where there is only one all posibilities are eradicated. And if the real nature of that one is love than also there is only happines, and no room for suffering what so ever.
