Mouna Diksha

Sri Ramana Maharshi

• Jnana chakshus does not mean that it is an organ of perception like the other sense organs: jnanameva chakshus. Televisions etc., are not functions of jnana chakshus. So long as there is a subject and also an object it is only relative knowledge. jnana lies beyond relative knowledge. It is Absolute.
• Dakshinamurthy observed silence when the disciples approached Him. That is the highest form of initiation. It includes the other forms. There must be subject-object relationship establishes in the other dikshas. First the subject must emanate and then the object. Unless these two are there how is the one to look at the other or touch him? Mounadiksha is the most perfect; it comprises looking, touching and teaching. It will purify the individual in every way and establish him in the Reality.
