This companion volume to Ramana Maharshi and the Path to Self-Knowledge contains many of his actual conversations with those who sought his guidance. It covers the whole religious and spiritual field,from basic theories about God and the nature of human beings, to advice about the conduct of our daily lives. The questions, and the Bhagavan's replies, are expressed in plain, conversational language, and no previous knowledge of Hinduism is needed to understand what is being discussed. Sri Ramana Maharshi was born in 1879, and he attained enlightenment at age 17. Following his transformation, he was drawn irresistibly to the sacred hill of Arunachala. In the ashram formed around him, he taught the purest form of Advaita Vedanta (nonduality) through the supremely simple discipline of Self Enquiry.
