About This Book

Ramana Maharshi's earliest and most essential teaching, originally written in 1902 in response to questions from a devotee named Sivaprakasam Pillai. In this slim text of fewer than thirty pages, Ramana presents the entire teaching of Self-inquiry — the practice of turning attention back on the inquirer until only pure awareness remains. Every major theme of his teaching flows from these pages.

What You'll Learn

The "I"-thought is the root of all other thoughts; tracing it to its source reveals the Self that underlies all experience. Happiness is not derived from objects but is the natural state of the Self when the mind is quiet. The state of liberation is not something to be attained — it is what we always already are.
