In this episode, quotes from Ramana Maharshi were contemplated.

In this episode, quotes from Margaret Coble were contemplated. "All are seeking. With favorable preparation, this universal seeking takes a subjective turn at last. The inward journey begin in earnest. Serious practice is take up. Your, self-discipline, observing the ind, purifying thoughts, words, diets, habits -- all! Meditating, becoming still, loving the Guru, learning discernment, studying, trusting Spirit, never despairing, keeping the book of life; the real of vibrations with the body, mind, ego and intellect until there is purity, detachment, alignment, integration and Viveka (discernment) -- Consciousness standing as the Truth of Being."

In this episode, quotes from Margaret Coble were contemplated. "Even if it will take time, you should start serious, regular practice now. None can predict how long it will take for Self-realization. It depends on the intensity of your practice, your devoted continuity in it, and on your previous soul history. If childish mind tries to argue that it will take too much time, just tell it that time will pass in any case. Five years from now it will be five years later whether you do serious divine practice, or not. So, you might as well fulfill your divine potential."

In this episode, quotes from Margaret Coble were contemplated. "Only by relaxing the mechanisms of multiplicity, both physical and mental, can individual consciousness merge with its own background, supreme consciousness. The body and the mind are instruments only. Instruments can be plugged in, turned on and off. And so we must go into the supreme consciousness alone: only individual consciousness, the I-am, is the door. By that we enter and merge with supreme consciousness in oneness, love, peace, and happiness."

In this episode, quotes from Margaret Coble were contemplated. "Now there is really nothing but this ocean of Love, and you are one with it. No dualism, no separation, no otherness -- just this unconditional love, peace and bliss. Do not settle for anything less. Resolve to be vigilant, to catch yourself again and again whenever you are out of this experience. This is your Home, your Reality. Let not the mind deceive you away from it. Let nothing interfere with it. If you find yourself in some other level of experience, return yourself to where you belong, namely, into Love, Oneness, Blessedness, changeless Identity."

In this episode, quotes from Margaret Coble were contemplated. "If we always remain with doing, working, running -- involved with manifestation -- how will we discover the unmanifest part of us? We need a program which we will become realized in the totality of our Being, not merely with manifestation. We must consciously include the vast realm of the unmanifest! This is the great imbalance in humanity today. Man is unbalanced toward manifestation. Everybody is running, thinking and doing, too often feverishly so, because of the accelerated vibrations. But with all this running we fail to get Enlightenment. That is the opposite direction. We have to search for the Source of this energy instead of spending energy faster and faster! The Source of the vibrations of our lives, the Source of the flow of our thoughts and feelings is more important than the particular manifestation. Even the love we radiating out has its Source in the un-manifest. Search that!"

In this episode, quotes from Ramana Maharshi were contemplated.

"Questioner: What is the nature of mind?

Ramana Maharshi: What is called mind is a wondrous power residing in the Self. It causes all thoughts to arise. Aparts from thoughts, there is no such thing as mind. Therefore, thought is the nature of mind."

"Questioner: How will the mind become quiescent?

Ramana Maharshi: By the inquiry, "Who am I?"... When other thoughts arise, one should not pursue them, but should inquire: 'To whom do they arise?"... The mind will go back to its source; and the thought that arose will become quiescent."
