Rupert Spira | How Does Ramana Maharshi’s Enlightenment Help You? @rupertspira | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
How does Ramana Maharshi’s Enlightenment help us? What did his sudden awakening allow him to bring back to us that will help us along the path towards spiritual awakening and ending our suffering?
Rupert says that sages like the Buddha, Jesus, Lao Tzu and Ramana Maharshi were not really extraordinary people. They were just people who had recognised the true nature of their own being. Everybody is the same awareness as them — the only difference between them and most people is that they did not allow the content of their experience to veil their innate peace and happiness.
What they brought back to us after their enlightenment is the knowledge of our true nature — that the peace for which we long resides in and as our being. They bring this peace and happiness with them and they share it because this is the one thing that everybody wants. They also bring back the different pathways to enlightenment whereby that peace may be accessed by each individual.
