Three Methods for Self Realization: By Sri Ramana Maharshi

Posted by: Harsha • Jan 14th, 2010

Bhagavan Ramana  explained the three approaches or methods to strengthen Self-Inquiry and gain Self-Realization.

1. Destroy the power of mind by seeking it. When the mind is examined its activities cease automatically.

2. Looking for the source of mind is another method. The source may be said to be God or Self or Consciousness.

3. Concentrating on one thought, all other thoughts disappear; finally that thought also disappears. It is necessary to be aware while controlling thoughts, otherwise it will lead to sleep.

  1. Aparna

    I’d say that there are 2 ways to arrive ‘Home’.
    One- through Self Realization

    and the other:

    To find that one Guru, you trust completely – and SURRENDER!!

    Complete Surrender to your Inner Divinity (sometimes manifested externally as a Guru) will also take you HOME!! :-)

    Enjoy the journey!!! :-)
