I have been wondering, also, about how the emulation of Ramana Maharshi can
in any way be practical. Anyone who wishes to respond to this question is
invited to give hard evidence direct from their own life. I'm talking about
jobs, family, fights with the spouse. I'm not talking about a review of
what Ramana Maharshi said.

Harsha gently and in a round about way has pointed to the ability to remain
in a state of constant equanimity and awareness of (). Acceptable. But I
still don't know how this is applied in a practical sense.

Furthermore, I still don't understand if this is real or right.

Where does passion sit in the devotees day to day?
Where does the body?
Where does the dealing with injustice?
Oh, and what of sex and pregnancy and birth and life?

This world as we know it, the world that fed the master, would crumble if
we all played out his life in our own.

stirring the pot,
not feeling a great deal of equanimity,
not feeling the need to, :)
Nina

Oh, where could we be without this notion of enlightenment? /lament

Well said Nina. Will pass it on to HarshaSatsangh as well.

I have not much to add nor do I have any special answers to your questions.
The Ramana Maharshi post was to give information on the Sage, and not to
hold him up as a model to emulate. The Sage of Arunachala taught freedom to
be who you are in your natural surroundings. Our Being Is Freedom,
regardless of our situation or circumstances.

We are not put on this earth to copy others. We make our own way with the
passion of our drives and the urges of the heart, and seek to give love and
receive love for the fulfillment of our unique destiny. The path is unknown.
It is carved out by simply walking and living life and embracing the present
with awareness in gratitude.
