On Realizing Eternal Peace of the Real Self - Ramana Maharishi



Realization is nothing to be gained anew.

You are the Self.
You are already and eternally That.

There is never a moment when the Self is not; it is ever-present,
here and now.

If Realization were something to be gained hereafter, there would be an equal chance of its being lost; this cannot be Liberation, which is eternal.

Realization consists of getting rid of the false idea that one is not realized.

Self-inquiry directly leads to Self-realization by removing the obstacles which make you think that the Self is not already realized.

Investigate the nature of the mind and it will disappear.

When the mind has thus vanished, you realize eternal Peace.

When the mind, turning inward, inquires, "Who am I?" and reaches the heart, that which is "I" (the ego) sinks crestfallen, and the One (Self) appears of its own accord as "I - I." Though it appears thus, it is not the ego; it is the Whole.

It is the real Self.
