The renowned Indian sage Ramana Maharshi is widely beloved--by Buddhists, Hindus, Christians, Taoists, and more--for the inspirational power of his teachings, which transcend all religious differences.

Here is a collection of Sri Ramana's instructions and discourses culled from three works: Who Am I?, Spiritual Instructions, and Maharshi's Gospel. These teachings are arranged by topics such as work and renunciation, silence and solitude, peace and happiness, and the discipline of self-inquiry. Reading this book, presented in question-and-answer format, evokes the feeling of being with this outstanding teacher at one of his intimate teaching sessions.
