Sri Ramana Maharshi
M: The best is heart to heart speech and heart to heart hearing. That is the best upadesha.
V: Is not guidance from Guru necessary?
M: Are you apart from Guru?
V: Is proximity helpful?
M: Do you mean physical proximity? What is the good of it? The mind alone matters. The mind must be contacted.
V: Lord, how can the grip of the ego be slackened?
M: By not adding new vasanas to it.
V: Any amount of japa has not slackened the grip!
M: How so? It will duly slacken and vanish.
