Where is the Heart? - 04.08.10

“Sri Ramana was often asked, ‘Where is the Heart?’ and sometimes he’d point to the right side of the chest . . . but then he would always say, ‘I had to tell them something. They needed to know a physical location. The Heart isn’t in the body. And the world doesn’t really exist.’ And when he found a mature seeker, he would say, ‘The world is ajata,’ which means it’s unborn. It doesn’t exist. It was never created. . . . Relax all of your worries about the world, and just simply allow the love to emerge in the fullness of the glory of your being. . . . And then you will see that you are everywhere, you’re not in the body. You’re non-localized. You are the Cosmic Mind Itself, simply having taken form as the Christian metaphor: God became man so that man could realize he is God. And we are each in that position of the Christ, realizing the truth of our being.” Recorded on the evening of Thursday, April 8, 2010.
