According to Ramana Maharshi, “When
one persistently enquires into the nature of the mind, the mind will end
leaving the Self. What is referred to as the Self is the Atman. When other
thoughts arise, one should not pursue them, but should inquire: ‘To whom do
they arise?’ It does not matter how many thoughts arise. As each thought
arises, one should inquire with diligence, ‘To whom has this thought arisen?’
The answer that would emerge would be ‘To me. ’ Thereupon if one asks ‘Who am
I?’ the mind will go back to its source; and the thought that arose will become
quiescent. With repeated practice in this manner, the mind will develop the
skill to stay in its source. ”
Be blissful.
