I plan to write about my feelings about Sri Ramana mainly. I do not claim to be an exponent on his teachings or anything like that ! I will try to express my feelings w.r.t Sri Ramana....
I got attracted to Him around 1994 or so...As I was kind of doubting Thomas and after reading about so many frauds in the religious arena, I did so many tests and verification of his teaching and his life, and finally I became a devotee of Him ! Or more correctly, Sri Ramana was gracious enough to allow me within the fold of his innumerable devotees !
I got started with Swami Vivekananda and Sri Ramakrishna at first ! They impressed me and convinced that self realization is the primary purpose of human life. But I could not move forward after a certain stage. Eventually. wherever I turned for my progress on my religious life, I was stopped by the following sentence : You need to learn further lessons from a Living Guru !!
