ENLIGHTENMENT BY SELF-INQUIRY–pt142
[The Teaching of Non-Duality has been adapted from Master Nome,
disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi. Sections appended below derive from Sri
Ramana's Teaching.]
Self-Realized jnanis are the same in any
state or condition, since they know Reality, the Truth. In their daily routines the jnanis act
only for others. Not a single action is done for themselves. I have already
told you many times that just as there are people whose profession is to mourn
for a fee, so also the jnanis do things for the sake of others withou
detachment, without themselves being affected.
When a human being determines by Self-Knowledge what in
Truth what his Existence is, Absolute Being is known. And if this is without
doubt & without wavering, one has thus known what needs to be known, has
experienced what needs to be experienced, & has realized what needs to be
realized.
The Self is bodiless & is
the same in all beings. Being the same
in all beings, all Bodies are one's own, while one is actually bodiless. If one is bodiless, all is oneself, & all
belongs to oneself, how can Delusion, Desire, Anger, & such arise ?
[Ramana]

“There is no Creation, no Destruction, no Bondage, no longing to be freed from Bondage, no striving for Liberation, nor anyone who has attained Liberation. Know that this to be Ultimate Truth.”– the “no creation” school of Gaudapada, Shankara, Ramana, Nome – Ajata Vada
