Book Description
The life of Sri Ramana Maharshi fills us with wonder. As a teenager,
hardly seventeen, he realised the Self through a spontaneous act
of Self-enquiry without any conscious effort on his part, or any
training imparted by a teacher.
Sri maharshi's message is that self-knowledge is not something
to be acquired afresh. It is only becoming aware of one's own natural
state of Pure Being, through self-enquiry.
The spirit of this simple but profound message has been captured
by the Author in his presentation.
