Sri Ramana Maharshi
In answer to a visitor Bhagavan made the following remarks:
“You can have, or rather you will yourself be, the highest imaginable kind of happiness. All other kinds of happiness which you have spoken of as ‘pleasure’, ‘joy’, ‘happiness’, ‘bliss’ are only reflections of the ananda which, in your true nature, you are."
“You need not bother about the lights which you say you see around things and people. Whether lights are seen or sounds are heard or whatever may happen, never let go the enquiry ‘Who am I?’ Keep on asking inwardly: ‘Who sees these lights or hears these sounds?’
“What do you mean by taking sannyasa? Do you think it means leaving your home or wearing robes of a certain colour? Wherever you go, even if you fly up into the air, will your mind not go with you? Or can you leave it behind you and go without it?”
