Talks on Sri Ramana Maharshi: Narrated by David Godman - Tales From Palakottu (Part VI)

This is the concluding episode of the 'Tales from Palakottu' series. It narrates the story of Lakshmana Swamy, a devotee of Sri Ramana Maharshi who realised the Self in his presence in Ramanasramam in 1949.
A full account of his life, and of the life of Saradamma, his chief disciple and successor, can be found in the book 'No Mind - I am the Self':

    Thank you David! What would we do without you? I'm a lawyer from Yakutia (Russia), the coldest place on Earth. Never ever was I interested in spirituality and India. But after watching one of your videos I became Ramana's devotee. Thank you! Also love the ending of this particular documentary. "Realising the Self is the only worthy accomplishment. Once you've done that, there is nothing else to do in life".

    In a certain way David is a kind of evangelist of Ramana Maharshi: Someone who bewares the details of his life and the life of his most important devotees as well as the places where Bhagavan used to live. So future generations have the chance to learn nearly everything that is known about Bhagavan. What a great and important task, and how wonderful you fulfill it, David!

    Yes, but Lakshmana Swamy is a complete recluse who never meet with people. It is possible to meet with Saradamma. You need to go to her gate and send in a message via a written note, asking to see her. Unfortunately, she generally refuses such requests, but some people do get to see her by approaching her in this way.
