Papaji - Its So Simple

Published 2012-10-26
“When you return to your Self, this is called awakening, liberation, freedom. Having known your Self you know everything. In the awakening, the whole universe is discovered to be within yourself. All universes are within you, and you are the universe. This is ultimate understanding.”

A seeker after truth for his whole life, Sri Poonjaji, affectionately called Papaji, met his Master, Ramana, in 1942. Papaji left his body on September 6, 1997.

    "You arrive here alone. You will die here alone. Follow no one." So true. Your "friend" leaves? Let them leave. Do not follow. Life comes to you. Don't go after Life. You don't need to.
  • He's correct in saying it requires no effort to be what one is, but it certainly requires effort to shed what one is not. That's because the whole society, our parents, education propagate illusions about what we are. They become such strong habitual tendencies that often we don't even recognize them as habits. And it ain't easy to let go of such habits...

    "Who project all this? Mind. What is mind? Thought. What is thought? I. What is I ? Investigate this." No more teachings need. This words are enough.
  • Be quiet about the past, Be quiet about the future, just think, just talk and just do deed at the present.

    Trying to reach the self is as the goldfish that is searching for water. You are already in it, and it is in you. We are THAT already and have always been.....
  • Might be a bit “woo woo” to say, but I have had an experience of “quietness” while on magic mushrooms. I had an overwhelmingly potent dose, and was going through pretty much insanity. My memories were entirely obliterated. I had a moment where I thought, what do I know? What CAN I understand? And the only thing I knew, was that I knew nothing. And suddenly, the world stilled. I saw everything from a lense of perfect clarity. I realized that any thoughts detracted from this experience. I went up to my friends who were sober, and tried my best to communicate my new understanding. At first I tried just talking about it, but I realized that my words were just another thought in theirs. I ended up just stating their names to get their attention, and threw my arms out, gesturing at the environment. They thought I was crazy. This talk helped me remember much of the insight that I had gained on that fateful day. Now I only hope to achieve the same thing again.

    honesty I think he is the best one ive seen who is sitting up front with this I don't know way they always do something that makes them seem special or something like what he is sitting in front of but I seriously hear that he is actually not being a teacher he is saying you are the teacher he is the student but he doesn't dress up some mysterious voice and way of making it seem like it's something that it's not because he is telling you the truth that before you were born and became life you came from being alone and nothing and when we die we have to go back to shed body mind memories so time and space don't exist because you are projecting everything you experience with your eyes and then when we sleep we are the same thing in the dream world because we are projecting the experience and in dreams it's totally weird and we don't wake up when we are going through it because we are totally there and don't attach anything to anything going on. I seriously liked when he said no one has said this because they are marketing their status by wording everything so attractive like mooji or whatever and that old one Oshie or something like that but my point is they have methods and basically teaching you and they might start it from the most pure place and only want to help but they always let themselves become guru or teacher and people who are obviously so totally lost to spend so much money to basically worship them like they are something special more than us when it's supposed to be teaching their is only one not me and you... but they always don't do it but this guy is doing it right away for me because he said he is the student when you come to him because he doesn't exist because there is no other.. honestly I think he is the most honest one because he is telling you that the goal is loosing everything you know period. basically don't exist and you will see he is being real and not making a enlightened and very totally mystical way all the spiritual people who are teaching yoga and meditation but they are becoming a person who is basically just ripping people off but this guy tells you forget don't ask for knowledge because that's the thing we are still adding to our ego and we are not even real because we are just teaching they are the answers and they are teaching you but they don't teach you they confuse and this guy is clearing it up.. shed everything you are and have been and time and space don't exist and therefore you are alone and this is the goal of meditation to me not learning.. its unlearning but more of them are teaching not taking away and he is taking away

    The moment you start thinking the ego moves in and take over your mind so keep quiet and think when you have to.
