What IS (ALWAYS-ALREADY) IS

The real state must be effortless.

It is permanent.

  1. I love this quote by Maharshi. And, this post seems related to the post below titled "tzu-jan, by itself so" and also to that Expanding Our Circle of Compassion TED Talk. Because it seems that compassion is effortless when it is seen that all is one there is no personal authorship.

  2. Great quote from Ramana. Lately I have been asking myself: What is effortless right now? So it is synchronicity to come across these words from Ramana.

  3. Glad you like it, Diane. Thanks, as well, for your interesting observations.

    Oftentimes, I've come to notice a thread linking posts AFTER I've posted them.
