Sri Ramana Maharshi – The Inner Self

“That inner Self, as the primeval Spirit,
 Eternal, ever effulgent, full and infinite Bliss, 
Single, indivisible, whole and living, 
Shines in everyone as the witnessing awareness.

That self in its splendour, shining in the cavity of the heart 
This self is neither born nor dies, 
Neither grows nor decays, 
Nor does it suffer any change. 

When a pot is broken, the space within it is not, 
And similarly, when the body dies the Self in it remains eternal.”
