Guru's latest response

Dear Kassy,

Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Ramanaya

Namaste. Thank you for your numerous recent messages.

Your messages express both worthwhile spiritual reflection and

repetitive patterns of thought. They do not have equal validity. One

reflects that which is true and profound, while the other is mere repetition

of imagination given undue emphasis. The latter is based on egoism and

non-comprehension of the source of happiness and lends itself to worldly

craving and fear. The former is of the nature of sattva and points in the

right direction, which is the nirguna (quality-less) Truth. Examine the play

of your mind, discern, and direct accordingly.

At the root of your ideas are the definitions that are

misidentifications. The root of all misidentifications is the assumption of

individuality, or ego. Inquire to become free of all of them.

The abandonment of misidentifications reveals the true Self. Such is

inquiry.

The Self is actionless. It remains so regardless of the activity or

inactivity of the body. Likewise is the Bliss of the Self.

That which is vast, eternal, deep, infinite, utterly beyond the

personality and its concerns, bliss itself, illimitable Consciousness,

formless, constant, imperishable, and nondual, and so knowing which there is

nothing else to experience, is ever cherished by the wise. Focused on that,

devoted to that, inquiring to know that, finding the utter insignificance of

all else in light of that, with that as their support, delighting in that,

absorbed in that, the wise realize that to be the sole-existent Reality and

remain completely content, as peace in the perfect fullness.

Ever yours in Truth,

Nome
