Self Enquiry - The path to realisation


Listen Later

This podcast from "Self-Enquiry," by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, presents a question-and-answer dialogue on Advaita Vedanta, focusing on self-inquiry ("Who am I?") as the path to liberation (moksha). The content emphasizes that the true self is already realized; the illusion of separateness from the self is the cause of suffering. Various yogic practices, like meditation and breath control, are presented as aids to achieving this self-realization, with different approaches tailored to the spiritual maturity of the practitioner. Ultimately, the text advocates for the cessation of the "I-thought" as the key to achieving a state of pure consciousness. The work's origins trace back to handwritten answers by Maharshi to a devotee's questions, later compiled and translated.
