Every Wednesday 6 to 7pm @ Serendipity Joy Hall, Auroville,
There have been many books written and published on Ramana Maharshi’s teachings, but for me this book stands out. Very logically compiled and produced keeping in mind the various kinds of readers. In a Q&A format, where the disciples and seekers ask questions and Ramana Maharshi responds. The questions are coming from people who don’t quite understand the teachings very well, so the degree of complexity is less. The use of words, the explanation of the philosophy is very easy and digestible by the common man.
There is only one place where we can find peace, and that is the “Self”. The Self or the consciousness, is the only reality. The world and its movements are an illusion, and aren’t to be taken seriously, the sage says. This is the principle teaching. Rest is up to us how much can we grasp of this.
Ramana Maharshi never lets the seekers get carried away or distracted. With his hard direct response style, he is always telling the truth unfiltered and unmasked. That is why he became so widely popular. He did not fear to tell the truth the way it is, and that is why he is one of the greatest spiritual teachers the world has ever seen.
I welcome you to join the reading circle to know this life changing wisdom, which is a sure shot way to reach a place of peace and tranquillity. Below is what we undertake in the circle –
*Starting meditation with some soothing music

*Collective book reading
