grace of guru-selfrealization

God never acts. He just is.


It is very hard to realize one's true state or nature without the grace of the guru.

God or guru never forsakes the devotee who has surrendered himself.

The guru does not bring about Self-realization. He simply removes the obstacles to it.

Individuality is the illusion that we are not identical with God. When the illusion is dispelled, what remains is God.

Realization of the Self is realization of God. It is not an experience of God, rather, it is an understanding that one is God.

Silence is the best, the most potent initiation. Silent initiation changes the heart of all.

Sri Ramana Maharshi
