380. Bhagavan Ramana Satsang - Nothing exists except You.

20th April 2022
These recordings are from live Satsangs at Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia. All the pointers during the Satsang are compiled by Dr Vidya Narasimhan.
Satsang is a Sanskrit term derived from two roots: sat meaning "true’" and sangha meaning community, company, or association. It can be translated as "associating with good people" or simply "being in the company of truth," and refers to the act of gathering with Sattvic-minded, uplifting beings, especially spiritual seekers.
Satsang is different from any course or lecture because the energy field in it allows for clarity, stillness, and expanded awareness to be experienced by those who seek it.
Whenever something increases your awareness of the Truth, it opens your Heart and quiets your mind.
Satsang is one of the most effective means of transcending your mind and staying in the egoless state which can be called enlightenment, liberation, freedom, moksha, nirvana or simply abiding in Self.
We call our Satsang lovingly as Bhagavan Satsang as they are all due to his grace, Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi.
According to Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi Satsang means only Atma Sang(Association with Self). Those who are trying to be in Self can come in the company of realized beings/Sadhus/Saints/Sages and that is also Satsang. Those who come in the company of Jivanmuktas also become Jivanmuktas.
Bhagavan explained the importance of Satsang by quoting Tayumanuvar, Suta Samhita, and Kaivalya Navanitam.
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi is widely thought of as one of the most outstanding Indian spiritual teachers of recent times. Having attained enlightenment at the age of 16, he was drawn to the holy mountain of Arunachala in southern India and remained there for the rest of his life. Arunachala mountain itself is considered to be self-manifested Lingam, an incarnation of Lord Shiva. Just by looking at it with reverence liberation will happen.
Attracted by his stillness, quietness, and teachings, thousands sought his guidance on issues ranging from the nature of God to daily life.
The philosophy of Advaita or Non-Duality has become, along with Buddhism, one of the most popular spiritual paths being pursued by those interested in enlightenment today. During the past three decades, Advaita has become more widely recognized in the West through the ever-growing popularity of Ramana Maharshi. His point of view has for its aim Self-realization. The central path taught in this philosophy is the inquiry into the nature of Self, the content of the notional 'I-thought'. Carl Jung wrote of Ramana: “Sri Ramana is a true son of the Indian earth. He is genuine and, in addition to that, something quite phenomenal. In India, he is the whitest spot in a white space. What we find in the life and teachings of Sri Ramana is the purest of India; with its breath of world-liberated and liberating humanity, it is a chant of millenniums.”
Om Peace Peace Peace.

    When I first began studying Ramana I went through a phase of ignorance where I just thought I plainly did not exist. It's that state where you know what you are not but don't know what you are. I am the Self. I am. I alone am.

    Beautifully said. I had that feeling all during my twenties when reading Buddhism. I had to not exist. And striving for it. By my thirties ego ran the show for the next 2 decades. It has taken 3 decades and finally finding the teachings of Ramana Maharshi and especially this channel, that peace has come over "me". To experience that the expansion of Self, rather than the contraction (to non-existence) of self leads to non-self. To see all as "I am that I am" , brings a contentment and peace that evaded me 3 decades ago. I could understand intellectually the teachings of Buddha and Patanjali back in the 90s , but not experience "it". The bliss. Just that. So simple. 🙏

So who is orchestrating the activities of the dream characters. It's your conciousness and even though many characters appear, it is really only the dreamer' s conciousness. Similarly this universe which you feel is real is nothing but a prolonged dream and whatever you are perceiving is nothing but conciousness. So everything is nothing but conciousness. Just like when a dream collapses, all the characters in it disappear; similarly one day this cosmic dream is going to collapse into that which is real

    Personally, I have found that mind can more easily adapt to "Self alone exists" as opposed to "body mind does not exist". The body mind I find to be tenacious and the anchor for the delusion. And I suppose rightfully so, inasmuch as our most primal nature has survival as its function. So the ego would certainly co-opt this drive.

    These comments on language. My feelings exactly. The H-word used on trivials. A loss of intelligence, of moderation, of subtleties, of reality. In this world of opposites, the many male wise ones are counterbalanced by the feminine: I am my (my!) body, I own it and honor it and care for it and do not make anyone responsible for it needlessly. A misunderstanding of the patriarchal teachings has resulted in a flaw in the consciousness movement in America, the dear body treated like a machine, controlled, alienated. Living in Paradox/Paradise comes from the marriage of opposites, which vacillate all the time. Matter matters, "non-existence" notwithstanding. Women (who have come into ego later than men) have a different experience than their brothers. Thank you for the profound wisdom of this talk. I like the voice, its tone and the energy behind it.

    The sage would do what he could to escape the predicament and if this was not possible then acceptance that whatever was happening was not of our doing but the Will of God. I would encourage you to just listen to as many teachings as you can and resist the urge to jump in and disagree as this is the ego who thinks he is a doer. The teachings of Advaita provides knowledge which results in ignorance dropping away. Sanjay uses the direct teaching …this takes time to integrate and takes patience and earnestness.

I think about what a sage might do if they are ordered to join a military draft and to kill. Aside from Krishna encouraging Arjuna to go to war, I think most sages tend to suggest that one should leave brutal, dualistic societies when one can. The hermitage, the refuge. When the dream becomes brutal, what do sages do?

    That's not what Ramana Maharshi said, he said that Iswara is real and has a body and liberation inwardly (as the Self). But he said that this is only true from the standpoint of people who believe in the individual soul, so God does exist in the typical sense, that is why the Christian Saints like Francis of Assisi ended up having ego death through the path of devotion to God. Ramana taught the path of knowledge or the path of devotion to God, and said that both lead to each other.

    I get caught in regards to the waking and dream states being the same. This is a major doubt that I cannot seem to get an answer to anywhere… Ramana Maharishi states that there is no real difference between the waking state and the dream state, only one is short and one is long. If this is true, than either beings in dreams have an apparent separate consciousness, meaning they also perceive the dream me as other beings do in the waking state, or this philosophy of Ramana’s is pointing to solipsism. Very difficult subject to debate, as at the end of the day there is no way to solve it without making an assumption I happen to dream a lot, very lucid and sometimes I do know that I’m dreaming. But while in the dream state and completely identified with it, there is truly no difference in my interactions with apparent others as in the waking state. They appear to be conscious beings, interacting we me. There could be five of us arguing different points of view, and I’m somehow on every side of that argument. It’s really mind bending I guess my question is.. Doesn’t this teaching point to solipsism? Would seem that it does. If not this means that dream people are conscious and dissolve upon the transition to deep sleep or the waking state. Would love to hear your insight 😊🙏🏻

    If I may attempt to answer your question. When the Self is being referred to, it's not the ego small self (the thinking mind) that is being referred to but the higher Self that is aware of the small self. And it's not that others don't exist, it's that the awareness (consciousness) that they have that is aware of themselves is the same awareness as the awareness that is aware of yourself. There is only one consciousness which we are all a part of and all share in. And nothing (no-thing) exists outside of it. I hope I'm explaining this in an understandable way? I love this quote from Nisargadatta Maharaj..... 'I am’ itself is God. The seeking itself is God. In seeking you discover that you are neither the body nor mind, and the love of the self in you is for the self in all. The two are one. The consciousness in you and the consciousness in me, apparently two, really one, seek unity and that is love.

However, it does not really solve the problem, as there’s no way to verify someone else’s experience. If you are going to assume that the conscious in you and the consciousness in me are appearing as two though really one, than this would also have to be the experience in the dream state for Ramana’s teaching about the waking and dreams being the same to be correct. Meaning dream people would also have to be conscious, which is equally hard to believe as everyone in the waking state being unconscious. You can say tht it is all one, so nothing really exists, and nothing ever happened. Which is ultimately true, but this doesn’t address the experience from within the paradigm of separation which is experienced as real while in it Nisargadatta Maharaj also says to question everything, even his teachings, don’t take anything as true, because nothing is.. Do you remember being born? Did you’re parents create you or did you created them? How do you know for sure? These are questions Nisargadatta Maharaj asks us to ponder

    @@michaelmichael7359 I don't believe, that is I don't have any real reason to believe, that what are seemingly only projections of the mind that make up dreams and others In those dreams are actually conscious as we are conscious in everyday experience. And I took Ramana's way of describing this more metaphorically than literally. That is, using as an example the dream state in a metaphorical way to illustrate a point. But you correct, one should not take as Truth anything that one cannot validate or experience for themselves. Having said this, I have no real way of actually knowing if others in the dream state are really conscious or not? I have no real way of actually knowing if others in actual life are really conscious or not? Are you conscious? Are you a figment of my imagination? All I can really know for a certainty is that others are appearing within my own consciousness. In my own experience. And the consciousness is the same in life as in the dream state. So all is still the same One consciousness either way. Have you heard the joke about the room full of solipsists? They were all arguing with each other about who was actually real lol. Ultimately the only thing that is really real is everything in your own experience right now. The eternal now. Everything else is a projection of the mind really. And what is the mind? Absolutely everything that has been observed by anyone, measured by anyone, known by anyone has been so within the realm of consciousness. So are the people in your own direct experience actually real? Is there awareness actually really in there inside that body? Ask yourself, does it really matter one way or another? All I can really say is that "I am". And I have faith that you also can say "I am" or I wouldn't have bothered replying.

    @@michaelmichael7359 My advice is to use your own intuition, trust your own intuition rather than trusting thoughts. What is your heart telling you? I trust my intuition and heart over my mind. My intuition and heart have served me greatly and have been a lot more reliable than my thoughts which come and go. Abide in Self.

    If we are pure consciousness, then why we are experiencing this different manifestation of consciousness unless it has a purpose?. From my experience of consciousness, pure consciousness is just a highest state of awareness, infinite where the observer is infinity and the observed is infinity and nothing else exists. and ego is the lowest state, where the observer is finite, singularity and observing the outside manifested consciousness. We cannot be in any of these states permanently, including infinity while we are alive...let's respect the purpose that it is designed only to move from ignorance to wisdom.experiecing death consciously while being aware and alive, liberates from ignorance.
