The Thirteenth Edition has just been released.A few additions of prominent disciples have been added but most of the pages still remain Arthur Osborne's. Ramana was a silent Teacher, if there was one. It would be more appropriate to call him the Silent One, for teaching denotes duality, the teacher and taught, while Ramana was, as a devotee wrote, the Pure Non-dual Essence. His most direct and profound teaching was transmitted in silence. However, how many were there that could immediately hear or experience the unspoken, the unwritten word? Devotees and visitors asked questions and out of his boundless compassion Bhagavan answered them in his own inimitable way, as the following excerpts will show. It was in 1911 that the first westerner, Frank Humphreys, then a policeman stationed in India, discovered Sri Ramana and wrote articles about him which were first published in The International Psychic Gazette in 1913. However, Sri Ramana only became relatively well known in and out of India after 1934 when Paul Brunton, having first visited Sri Ramana in January 1931, published the book A Search in Secret India, which became very popular. Resulting visitors included Paramahansa Yogananda, Somerset Maugham (whose 1944 novel The Razor's Edge models its spiritual guru after Sri Ramana), Mercedes de Acosta, Julian P. Johnson, and Arthur Osborne. Sri Ramana's relative fame spread throughout the 1940s. However, even as his fame spread, Sri Ramana was noted for his belief in the power of silence and his relatively sparse use of speech, as well as his lack of concern for fame or criticism.His lifestyle remained that of a renunciate. This work contains almost everything written by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. His inspired compositions, and a number of translations from ancient Advaitic texts, representing the essence of his teachings. They fall into two categories--those which exemplify the path of surrender through love and devotion to the Divine, and those which are more doctrinal. The first group includes the Five Hymns to Sri Arunachala of which the first poem, The Marital Garland Of Letters "is among the most profound and moving poems in any language" and expresses the attitude of the soul aspiring for union with God. Sri Bhagavan has affirmed that seekers who study these works are certain to attain the bliss of liberation.

The Collected Works Of Sri Ramana Maharshi/Twelfth Edition, by Sri Ramana Maharshi/Translations by Arthur Osborne Review The words of this sage still flame out in my memory like beacon of lights. "I pluck golden fruit from rare meetings with wise men" wrote Trans-Atlantic Emerson in his diary, and it is certain that I plucked whole basketfuls during my meetings with this man. Our best Philosophers of Europe could not hold a candle to him... --Paul Brunton in his famous book :In Search Of Secret India
About the Author Sri Ramana Maharshi (December 30, 1879- April 14, 1950), born Venkataraman Iyer, was an Indian sage. He was born to a Tamil-speaking Brahmin family in Tiruchuzhi, Tamil Nadu. After having attained liberation at the age of 16, he left home for Arunachala, a mountain considered sacred by Hindus, at Tiruvannamalai, and lived there for the rest of his life. Arunachala is located in Tamil Nadu, South India. Although born a Brahmin, after having attained moksha he declared himself an "Atiasrami", a Sastraic state of unattachment to anything in life and beyond all caste restrictions.Sri Ramana maintained that the purest form of his teachings was the powerful silence which radiated from his presence and quieted the minds of those attuned to it. He gave verbal teachings only for the benefit of those who could not understand his silence.His verbal teachings were said to flow from his direct experience of Consciousness (Atman) as the only existing reality. When asked for advice, he recommended self-enquiry as the fastest path to moksha. Though his primary teaching is associated with Non-dualism, Advaita Vedanta, and Jnana yoga, he recommended Bhakti to those he saw were fit for it, and gave his approval to a variety of paths and practices. Family Background Sri Ramana was born in a village called Tiruchuli near Madurai in Tamil Nadu, South India on Arudra Darshanam day, into an orthodox Hindu Tamil (Iyer) family, the second of four children of Sundaram Iyer (1845-1892) and Azhagammal (?-1922), and named Venkataraman at birth. His siblings were Nagaswamy (1877-1900), Nagasundaram (1886-1953) and sister Alamelu (1891/92-1953). Venkataraman's father was a respected pleader.[6] [edit] Childhood Venkataraman seemed a normal child with no apparent signs of future greatness. He was popular, good at sports, very intelligent but lazy at school, indulged in an average amount of mischief, and showed little religious interest. He did have a few unusual traits. When he slept, he went into such a deep state of unconsciousness that his friends could physically assault his body without waking him up. He also had an extraordinary amount of luck. In team games, whichever side he played for always won. This earned him the nickname 'Tangakai', which means 'golden hand'[7]. When Venkataraman was about 11, his father sent him to live with his paternal uncle Subbaiyar in Dindigul because he wanted his sons to be educated in English so they would be eligible to enter government service and only Tamil was taught at the village school in Tiruchuzhi. In 1891, when his uncle was transferred to Madurai, Venkataraman and his older brother Nagaswami moved with him.

It is a collection of almost everything written or translated by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, one of the greatest sages of the twentieth century.This book can very well be considered the gold standard on Jnana Marga or the Path of Knowledge, just as Narada's Bhakti sutras is for the Path of Divine Love and Patanjali's Yoga sutras is for the Path of Meditation. The book consists of his most famous teachings, 'Who am I?', 'Self-enquiry' and 'Spiritual instruction'. These three chapters are in a question and answer format. This is Jnana Marga simplified and presented to modern age. Maharshi acknowledges that Jnana Marga is not for everyone and so in addition to discussions on Jnana Marga, there are also beautiful summaries of other paths to Self-Realization like Bhakti Yoga (Yoga of Divine Love) and Dhyana Yoga (Yoga of meditation). One can see how the eight steps of Dhyana (Yoga Ashtanga) compares with the eight steps of Jnana (Jnana Ashtanga).His original writings, Upadesa Undiyar and Ulladu Narpadu follow, which have been translated into very good English. These contain the essence of his teachings.Next follow translations of important texts on advaita & jnana marga like Atma Saksatkara (instructions of Lord Siva to his son Guha), Devi Kalotarra (instructions of Lord Siva to his wife Parvathi) and major original works of Sankara (including the famous Vivekachudamani). The section on Gita contain the important verses of Bhagavad Gita selected and rearranged by Bhagavan.Towards the end, Maharshi guarantees Self-realization if one is to read this book and puts its words into practice.If there is only one book you can afford to read on Sanatana Dharma (the Vedic Religion or Hinduism), this is the one.
18 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Wisdom of a Great Sage By Daniel Garcia The Collected Works contains all the major written works of Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi in a single volume. It consists of both prose and poetic compositions of the Maharshi. His prose works explain in detail his instruction in the path of inquiry, while many of his poems express truth in a devotional tone. Combined with another title (Talks with Ramana Maharshi) this book can give the reader all (s)he would want to read about the Maharshi and his teachings.
14 of 15 people found the following review helpful. A Priceless Gem By A. Hard Ramana's words still the mind and expand the heart. He never spoke often, but when his words were captured, it becomes very clear these are the words of an enlightened being. This book is great because it is a compilation of his writing. I have gone back to it many times and it always brings a great sense of clarity and peace. His words pull you into the reality of the moment and out of the circles of mundane mind that keep suffering in place. Each reading is a new experience and I often find myself drawn to it when agitated by something. It brings peace and comfort like slipping into a warm bath or lying down in a soft bed. It reminds you of what you truly are without all the attachments.
