“Not like that”

About Ramana Maharshi

Maharshi returns from his short walk and hardly sits when a very small boy carrying two small mangoes comes and, instead of placing them on the special offerings-table, he shoves them in Bhagavan’s hands.

Letter to Shri Alasinga Perumal 22

CWSV Volume 5

You have to defend yourselves. Why do you behave like babies? If anybody attacks your religion, why cannot, you defend it? As for me, you need not be afraid, I have more friends than enemies here, and in this country one-third are Christians.

Letter to Mrs. Ole Bull 41

CWSV Volume 6

let the world come, the hells come, the gods come, let Mother come, I fight and do not give in. Râvana got his release in three births by fighting the Lord Himself! It is glorious to fight Mother.
