Who Am I?: The Teachings of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi

I got this book because of the title: Teachings of Ramana Marharshi. The highest truth that Sri Ramana Marharshi has imparted to seekers is that nothing is real but the Self, and that the individual soul, world, and God are nothing but the Self, is a very subtle truth not easily grasped by the mind. The question and answer format is like sequential steps guiding the seeker, one question and answer at a time toward greater clarity into the method of Self-inquiry. Even though I was quite disappointed at first by how brief the pages were, those 28 questions and answers have packed the entire truth of the universe in the palms of our hands. I'm very grateful for the publisher's contribution in making the Sage's teachings into a user-friendly version. It was truly a creative endeavor and service to all sincere seekers truth.Thank you!

Insights are very valuable. They are concisely written. It is a great short text for understanding into ourselves and a great guide to spiritual happiness.

Ramana became my main human guru in this life about two years ago, and has possibly been the most noticeably transformative for me, though, without the preparation from the others throughout my earlier life, this may have not been noticeable. Christ having been my first known guru in this life. (Though both my grandmothers were in some ways, also gurus to me, though unbeknownst to them) Buddha my second, then Soka Gakkai Nichiren Buddhism played its part, then Eckhart Tolle, then Ramana. Nisargadatta Maharaj and Papaji, also of the time of Ramana, have been guru's for me as well. However, it is Ramana and his direct path to enlightenment that has guided me most directly. I know however, that all find their needed guru(s) according to their own need and spiritual path. The wisdom of the path directed by Ramana is simple and to the point. Not all will be ready for this. If you are ready, it will come to you, and you will know.

Sri Ramana Maharshi is a Way shower to spiritual liberation. He speaks truth to all who would hear his words.

An enduring classic, rich in wisdom. It has changed the way I approach meditation. I highly recommend this timeless book.

I like that the small booklet gives a lifetime of information. Easy to read a follow.

When we quiet our mind with the thought “Who Am I?” our thoughts (and indeed the world they create) are destroyed until the mind recedes back into the heart, and only Awareness remains. This is Existence-Happiness-Bliss. It is liberation from the misery of desire and fear, and it is a return to our origin. Although this book is extremely short, it introduces a powerful practice of self-inquiry capable of transforming ourselves and our world. Thoughts arise, but they are not us. The world seems real, but it is projected from our mind. We seem separate, but we are one.

Ramana Maharshi melts my heart, soothes my mind, entices my spirit. This oh so brief work carries within all the knowledge you'll ever need to remember who you are in the endless sea of wholeness.

Ramana Maharshi deixa muito claro em suas respostas a essência do processo místico da libertação espiritual por ocasião da descoberta de nossa verdadeira natureza, desmistificando e esclarecendo de forma direta e simples, facilitando sua compreenção.

Ein sehr kleines Buch, aber jede Zeile ist lesenswert. Am Anfang habe ich nicht viel verstanden, aber ich lese das Buch immer wieder.

received on time without any damage, good print quality short book with answers for twenty eight questions about reality which most are not aware of a gem of a book, which i have been giving out as gift to people i know

This is a VERY small book that contains a power of information in few words (I've used a small avocado to give you a sense of size). I quite like this idea as it makes a great pocket companion. The contents of the book are a distillation of basic yet foundational teachings that Marahashi has personally endorsed - therefore an original works. He encouraged his followers to read this book before asking any questions on the nature of self or self enquiry. Unlike other gurus, Marahashi insisted on making this book accessible free of charge, he wanted no relationship with money or profit. This little gem is a good testimony that size isn't everything - it serves as a good starting point for self reflection, and if you do the practice it may be all you'll ever need. Customer service: The book arrived well before the estimated delivery time (two weeks early in fact, which was a lovely surprise). It was well packaged, sealed and in perfect condition. Exceptional service, thank you.

Si te gusta meditar y filosofar este es un buen ensayo. Son más o menos 30 páginas en total
