Possibly one of the best explanation of what is SELF INQUIRY by long time students and scholars of Sri Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi
PART -2- • PART - 2 - Sri Ramana ...
Thanks to both of you , Mr Godman and Dr. Jung, for focussing our attention on the internal 'Universal I' , which is The Unity under the diversity. 🙏🙏🙏❤
Having just watched this again for the first time in 2 years ( !!!), I have to say that it has lost none of its power . I find David's explanation of Bhagavan's teachings to be simultaneously intellectually and experientially satisfying. Thank you 🙏🕉️
These short talks on Self-Enquiry are extremely powerful in my humble opinion. David really gets to the Heart of the Matter . Part 1 and 2 in particular are not just an intellectual exposition of Bhagavan's teaching they seem to be infused with the power behind the teaching and drive you towards the Self like a sheep dog slowly drives a flock of sheep ( your various wandering thoughts ) into the sheep pen ( the Self )🕉️.
I feel same way ! I watch them a few times a week.
Mr. Godman & Mr. Jung, this is the best consolidation of Ramana's teaching. This video is enough to satisfy life's intellectual need. Its a culmination. Thank you. 🙏
This is an excellent summary of Bhagavan's teachings. I often go back to it. Thank you David.
I return to hear you explained about Bhagavana thank you David
Thank you David, I met you with Swami Atmananda in January 2018, I had the impression of a rare honest sadaka.
Namaste
In august I will be back in Tiruvannamalai, I hope to meet you.
Try using the option of reducing the play back speed of the video. I use .75 . It adds a level of contemplation and reflection.
Excellent advice!
Thank you for advice! I did and it made a difference...
Sir
Namaste.
After reading suri nagamma and also about Sri kanchi paramacharya, my fedupness in life in telugu.
నేనుండేది ఎక్కడ తెలుసా? :
నీకు కనిపిస్తాను:
కాని నాకు నేను కనబడని అంత దూరంలో (నీ నుండి) ఉన్నాను.
ఎందరో నీ దరికి చేరారు :
నా వంతెప్పుడో కదా.
శరీరం, రోగాలు, కామం, కొవ్వు, రుచులు, ఏడ్పులు, నవ్వలేక నవ్వులు - - భ్రమ :
ఈ నా ఒక అడుగు : నీ అడుగులెన్నో, నా వైపు.
Thank you david gaaru :
i don't know you yet there seems to be thread tied ti both of us,
may be it's your nature.
David. You explanations are becoming more and more clear. I'm getting it!
1:00= Silence is my highest teaching
I know I am what's looking, yet I enjoy objects , I have identification with body/mind... thank you David Goldman for explaining clearly Ramana 's teaching.
... of where to go next. I could identify with God the seer, but with strong identification with body/ mind I know from understanding the concept of unity I am not experiencing oneness.
Carol Pedigree thank you for the poignant reminder! How the drama pushes for attention....
Thank you henry, david and reinhard 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️☮️-
When I was 14 years old, myself and some school friends would skip class and hide in the cloak room asking, 'who am I' and contemplate it for hours. It is the question of all questions. We did not find an answer, only fell into the Eternal wonder of Self
Great story
2:12 'if you want to contact the self all you have to do is look in the right direction' Who wants or wants not [to contact the self]?! It sounds like there is you and the self when there is no 'you' but only the self.
That's why silence was Ramana's main teaching because whatever word is uttered is a lie. The self does not need any words, only people/egos need words.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!! ⛰🌳🐛🌻🐞🕷🐝🐜🕊🐿🦃☉🐂🐄🐒🌹⛰

Dear Mr. Godman, will you please tell me which verse it is in Padamalai where Bhagavan says, "Why are you complaining that I am not looking at you?" After listening to your Self-Inquiry videos I saw Bhagavan looking at me from the inside, my own Heart! This experience has set my gaze on Him. I am so thrilled with your work and service to Bhagavan. My heartfelt thanks to you, Dr. Jung, and Mr. Jolicoeur.
Who sees inside from outside? Who finds hundreds of mysteries even when minds are deranged? See through his eyes what he sees. Who then is looking out from his eyes? ~ Rumi Version by Coleman Barks Open Secret Threshold Books ...
Shams is invisible because he is inside sight. He is the intelligent
essence. of what is everywhere at once, seeing. - Rumi version by
Coleman Barks
In other words Ramana is the intelligent essence of what is everywhere
at once, SEEING..
I have come to find two explanations of the Self. Our true nature is silence, the absolute, the stateless state and ultimate reality. Brahman.. Ramana says our beingness is eternal yet maharaj says that the I am is the thought that manifests as form. The death of the form is the subsidence of awareness into stillness. Consciousness fading into pure nothingness. No perception and no perceiver. No form and no witness. Anyone care to try to clarify? I've read the Ribhu-Gita and that seems to say that Maharaj is wrong is saying that awareness and consciousness fades into the stillness of nothingness. Ribhu-Gita speaks in a way that is transcendent of both extremes. For example it says Brahman is all that is. It is beyond duality and non-duality. It is not being and it is not non-being. It is beyond concept. It is beyond minds ability to understand. It is eternal and it exists in time. This book and it's context seem to make the most sense by making the least to the mind but it speaks to the heart inside bringing my attention to it. I feel as tho maharaj may be missing something in his language if he is trying to convey that indeed we are eternal because if we were we would be eternal. Being
Oh, this is a gospel!
Thank you for this very helpful explanation!
I am the Self, O Guḍākeśa, seated in the hearts of all creatures. I am the beginning, the middle and the end of all beings. Gita Chapter 10, Verse 20
I AM the alpha and the omega. Revelation 22:13
Gracias ♡♡♡
5:30 =regretably,most people are not interested in staying silently with the Sat guru or listening to his words
That is why the guru is sad.
In very recent talks January,2021 at Ramanashram, one very known speaker has said that Bhagawan was literally an idol worshipper. Is this so?
amazing talk
moved
Baghavan is here. He is what there is, as we all are... And by the way, no thing is permanent, what is permanent is no thing. So how can that which is permanent not be?
thanks💚
If you hold on to the 'I' thought how will it disappear? Getting to the sense of 'I' and realizing that it is fake (created by the brain) will make it vanish.
Great
It is impossible to be fully aware of sight, sound and feel arisings without the spacious silence devoid of the feel/thought tangled false notion of a fixed self. Maybe it is the the space unity that even pervades the middle of arisings that fully merges the meditation impermeable and nonreactive perceptually ?
3:50= power in the words of a Jnani
In the west there is confusion about what the definition of self is. The ego state is not the self. The egoless experience is practically unknown to most people.
Not just west, here in India the tsunami like influence of modern education and lifestyle has rendered most of the educated people incapable of making that distinction too. Knowledge and acceptance of birth cycle was a given, even our day to day proverbs and saying would imply the acknowledgement of the nature of this world. But now the drink n merry culture has made people deny the birth cycle. This stops a person from seeking any meaning in life, thus denying him any opportunity to free himself from this bondage.
Earlier common people had basic idea of brahman and our relationship with It. Now it is fashion to not believe in anything beyond current life.
I have this experience...
upto 7:00 bhagwan didnt mean self enquiry no. 1.....silence no. 1 ....then self enquiry
...good to know, David...thanks
wow
Would you agree that what is "looking within us all the time" is an invisible Presence? Or should we look for a human face, i.e., Ramana Maharshi?

What you are looking for is what is looking. - Saint Francis of Assisi
no, what are you looking for and what is looking are just mind concepts that have nothing to do with Being for the simple fact that 'what is not never comes into existence, whereas what is, never ceases to be' [there's no thing looking and there's no looking]
Self Abidance = atmanusandhana = silence. number 1
cannot do that then self enquiry
cannot do that then pranayama and other tiddly widdly stuff
Hi David,
What is Bhagwan's position on the status of women in the scoiety.
The Self has no gender. And no opinions. If people were to recover their Self-hood, then society would become harmonious, and true. People's conduct would be naturally gracious and kind, without recourse to rules, rights, opinions, or questions. Forget delving into other peoples opinions about women, blacks, muslims, Christ, homosexuals, minorities, oppressive hierarchies, and patriarchies..Ask: 'who is asking this question?'
