Summary: You don't find a book, a book finds you!
Comment: Ramana was a true master, He knew that truth could not be put into words, he new that truth could not be a concept or an idea, he new that truth was beyond mind, beyond the horizontal plane of existence of apparent beginings and ends so his favorite method was his silent teaching. Silence was his prefer way to communicate truth. Those who needed more than silence, will ask him questions and he will answer. But as always as soon as you use words to explain truth you will encounter that with the same words, on the same answer, some will see beautiful wisdom and others absolute nonsense. That is the power, beauty and mistery that happens when you try to express truth in words.If this book has find you, or even if you are reading this review,realize that there is something you can learn or become aware from this book, because even if you feel you got nothing out of it, that is still something! Read some of the pages from this book, and by doing that, something inside you will tell you yes, there is some beautiful wisdom here, or no, this is a soup of letters and I have no clue what this guy is talking about.
Thanks Ramana, thanks David, thank you for having enough compassion to know that there are fools like myself out there that need more than silence to have at least a taste of what truth is all about!

Summary: A Book Sufficient to Enlighten the Ripe One
Comment: Years ago, the first reading of "Be As You Are" left me with a tingling sensation at the prospects of nearing the end of my spiritual search. Since then I have read it again and again over the years. Sri Ramana's answers never cease to inspire me with fresh insight every time I read the book. If all my collection of books containing, among others, Autobiography of a Yogi, Yoga Vasishta, Mahatma Gandhi, Nisargadatta Maharaj, Papaji and others were to be taken away and I were to keep just two books, one of them would have to be "Be As You Are" (the other one being: Pointers from Nisargadatta Maharaj by Ramesh Balsekar). This is the book that made me search out its editor - and after spending some time with David Godman in our first meeting - I impulsively touched his feet for his great work and for introducing me to my guru, Sri Ramana Maharshi.
This book is not for everyone!

Summary: One of the best books on non-duality.
Comment: BE AS YOU ARE is full of well rounded questions and answers on all topics of interest to the spiritual seeker.
If you're inclined to "bare bones" essentials in your spiritual teachings this is a highly recommended book. The core teaching is self-inquiry, a method of keeping sharp focus on the Self. Ramana Maharshi and Nisargadatta Maharaj were both well known for very direct approaches to spirituality. This book shows how Ramana Maharshi keeps his teachings very simple and direct from all angles. How he addresses questions to
subjects like: Surrender, Meditation, Yoga, Mantras, Reincarnation, Karma and many, many other topics posed to him. He always found a way to keep all these topics aligned with knowing the Self, your unconditioned state. If there is one thing this book does is help streamline many different angles and teachings into one core practice: Dive inside the "I AM" know that intimimately until you know you are not the body.
If you like this book and Ramana Maharshi I highly recommend The Power of Now also.
