Be as you are - Teachings of Ramana Maharshi


Listen Later

This podcast is created from a text that presents a collection of questions and answers attributed to Sri Ramana Maharshi, a prominent Hindu sage. The core of his teachings emphasizes Self-realization, achieved through self-inquiry—the process of investigating the nature of the "I"-thought. He explains various concepts within Hinduism, such as the nature of the Self, the role of the Guru, meditation techniques, and the mechanics of karma and reincarnation, often contrasting conventional approaches with his own emphasis on direct experience and the inherent nature of reality. His answers frequently utilize parables and analogies to illustrate complex spiritual ideas, aiming to guide seekers toward understanding their true, unchanging Self. The text ultimately proposes that the path to liberation lies not in external practices but in the direct realization of one's own inherent nature.
