The experience is astonishing. There are two selves... a phantom and pure awareness. When perception drops below the phantom and into only awareness, truth becomes so clear. Because you're not experiencing truth, you are truth. But when you perceive yourself from the perspective of the phantom apparently you have to work at it. You don't actually have to work at it because nothing actually needs to happen but the belief system is strong. Diligent effort done properly will dissolve the belief system which is perceived as the phantom. The point from which perception is experienced will then drop into pure awareness which is what you are. From this true perspective there is no sudden awakening or "aha moment". Those things are only temporarily perceived by a phantom temporarily perceiving pure awareness. From that perspective of pure awareness I always was and always will be that. And being enlightened is nothing more than being what you are.
I've gone through many variations of process over these last two years. I have now come to recognize mind as really nothing more than a "device". This device is a rather "simplistic in operation" parasite that lacks being. It's sole function is to produce the illusion of my SELF being pushed into the background, behind the false self projected by the device. This device works through a process of compulsive narration of "my life" pushing "me" into the role of the character in its narrative. This is why catching it as often as possible is important. Catching this device every time it attempts to narrate "me" into the "story of me" is a very powerful way of standing in the foreground and recognizing this device for what it is... Just a device. In recognizing that I am automatically catapulted out from behind it, which in fact I never was. It is all an illusion produced by this very loud, very insistent, compulsively active narrator. But the more I recognize it the less ability this device has to maintain its position in the foreground, where it must be in order to function. But as I said it never actually was in the foreground. None the less the more I recognize it the more it loses its ability to project the illusion of being in the foreground where it has to be in order to push me into the background. As it was never actually in the foreground I was never in the background. If you persist in this process it becomes obvious that what I am does not have a location and has no form so it can't be pushed anywhere. What I am is sort of nowhere and everywhere at the same time. And nothing and everything at the same time. I have found that the device stands in the way of this awareness of SELF. That device needs to be chiselled away bit by bit by bit by bit. It takes intense effort and intense focus in order for that process to become continual. In other words meditation or self inquiry becomes your constant state. In truth self inquiry always was my constant state. In the beginning, as a character in a story practicing self inquiry is very difficult. But it isn't really. It's only the device that makes it seem so because that is the story it tells. As the device deteriorates and dissolves away to nothing the never ending state of self inquiry is revealed. But at that point there really is no self inquiry. Inquiry is the effort to push through the illusion to the self. Once you push through it and arrive at the other side, which is where you always were, you are in a permanent state of self inquiry, but without the inquiry. And so all there is is SELF. I am still absolutely on the path but I know my self now by being my self. It is unstable and fleeting but less unstable and fleeting than it was a month ago. The further along you travel on the path the more obvious progress becomes. As it becomes more obvious it becomes easier. In the end it becomes so easy that nothing is left but ease itself, which is what I am.
@@jmac4952 Thank you for sharing your path and insights. Very inspiring. As Ramana said: "Watch the mind. You must stand aloof from it. You are not the mind. And the Self will remain ever".
This mighty teaching opens up the heart and the ego has nowhere to run. Ramana Maharshi, teacher of this troublesome age, the life jacket for those who journey in search of the depths.
Dear Lady, Been listening to your videos for a month and so and I have to admit that you are like an angel for me. The quality, knowledge and your pure bliss of doing such a beautiful creation with this videos is simply astonishing. Please do not stop and keep expanding consciousness. Your work is much appreciated and I am so grateful that I came accros your channel. I have much love to send to you. May the force be with you, within you for the rest of your life. 😘🙏🏽
Dear Mother I salute to you for bringing this timeless truth of all the sages. Your reading puts our hearts at ease and makes the truth all the more closer to us !!
I listen to this at least once a day and it brightens my day. Thank you Sir Ramana for your life. Thank you the reader for heralding the good news. I hope one day to be able to visit Ramana 's Ashram. Nemaste!!
I love it, this version is beautefully. Bei bestimmten Anlässen trat Bhagavan manchmal in samadhi ein. Einmal flocht ich gerade Blumenkränze im Tempel der Mutter, als Bhagavan hereinkam und sich neben mich setzte. Wir wechselten ein paar Worte, dann ging Bhagavan mit offenen Augen in einen tiefen samadhi und blieb eine halbe Stunde lang bewegungslos sitzen. Er ähnelte so vollkommen einer Statue, dass sogar sein Atem zum Stillstand kam. Kein Blinzeln oder Wimpernzucken, keine spur von Atmung waren zu erkennen - was ich prüfte, indem ich meine Hand vor sein Gesicht hielt - und sein Körper zeigte keinerlei Regung. In den normalen Zustand zurückgekehrt, lachte er und tat, als sei nicht geschehen. Annamalai Swami
Ramana Maharshi is one of a handful of truly enlightened humans who has walked this earth in recent times. I love the way this video has been put together: the words of Sri Maharshi, the music, the narration. It's wonderful to meditate to.
These might be the most beautiful words ive ever heard. Thank you so much for this it is helping me a lot right now in a difficult phase of maturing. Namaste
I love to read all the comments of how much people are bieng profoundly and positively affected by samanari jayasara.it is a true testament to how much peace and true love come from living a spiritual life.it is amazing and heartwarming.
Succinct and loving with the mastery and casual clarity that only one who has been there and knows the way can possess. The simple truth flowers in my heart where the seeds have long been waiting. Deepest Thanks 💐🌟❤️
This is a masterpiece....thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Bless you Mataji for bringing us this most profound of teachings from our beloved guru Sri Ramana Maharshi. Namaste'
Who is This, " our Beloved Guru Shri Ramana Maharshi?". The Master And His Teachings is Not " our " Property. One Cannot Own or Possess The Truth For It is Sufficient Unto Itself. ...fish.
Truly your sharing this is an act of such grace it can only have come from the beloved ❤️ These blessed words sparked something deep within and there will never be enough thanks to give that they were here to be found, so easily accessible and wonderfully delivered
Thank you! What great merit you have, to bring so many sublime sages to life, allowing us to connect to the deepest wisdom in whatever mode speaks to us! May you be blessed to bring many beings into the Heart of Reality.
Dear one, I cannot thank you enough for making these videos. I can only say that they are truly Divine. Your voice speaks from the Source Itself. The teachings you are selecting are so rare and is helping me on my path immensely. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I only have love for you❤️❤️
Listening to this it seems so easy to just drop the ego and become only Self but it’s a bit more complicated than it was for Maharshi or everyone of us would be fully enlightened right now. Having said that, I really enjoy his take on the simplicity of it and feel great after listening.
It took me down a path of deep calm and awareness as I listened and absorbed. In the end I simply feel the clarity & waves of breath. The journey brought me from discursive thinking to peaceful abiding.
The “secret” of self liberation is the realization that it had never be imprisoned at all…. See it in the eyes of the newborn, as endless and vaster than the universe…. No vail… no limitation…
Cannot express how astonished and graceful I feel with the way you have exalted therse invaluable treassures. I am in deep Joy, your voice transmits the very essence of each and every one of these profound words of wisdom!! May you be blessed always!! May the merits received by us through your own words trasnform all sentient biengs and may thiese merits falll upon you by multiples of 100s!
Thank you for these videos, I'm really enjoying your channel. Your readings are very well done, thoughtful and fitting for the material. I particularly like the videos of Bhagavan's teachings and the readings that have Indian music create just the right atmosphere. Thank you for including the music credits. Looking forward to future videos. Namaskar.

I keep coming back to this every time and again. It's like a reset of the mind that got out of hand, like a pure magnet of grace.

Because you're not experiencing truth, you are truth. But when you perceive yourself from the perspective of the phantom apparently you have to work at it.

Everything about this video is perfect. The music, the narration, the content. I meditate to it daily like affirmations.
Just sitting and listening from 55:00 to the end is enough to effortlessly focus even the most scattered of minds
Coming back and to these videos after 4 years is amazing. I used to be so confused listening. I just smile now.
You are always there, drawing me home. What a joyful reunion!! My heart smiles.

You are him. You're not that body. You're that which is experiencing the body; impersonally.
He is manifested all over ...he is omnipresent...he is Ramana he is Avril he is everything
And you will meet him if you keep practicing
@@Notsonice89 But he is self himself,so who will meet to whome ?
This guided meditation is a work of art.
So it is!

His Silence has been my guiding voice for several years now. He is my true Love and Guide.
May all sentient life find peace ❤
