Rm31, Ramana, The Maharishi

RAMANA MAHARISHI Ramana was considered Rishi of Rishis, For this reason, he was called Maharishi, As his heart was full of compassion To all living beings under God's creation. One day Sundaram, Ashram's cook Served vegetables not fully cooked, To all devotees, but not to him, As it might cause indigestion to him Ramana took up seriously with him For serving the same to all of them Saying, "When I can't digest it How can others digest it? " As days passed, there was a set back In his health keeping him weak, One devotee gave him an advice To drink daily a glass of fruit juice. In reply he said, "If I must take All the 200 devotees must drink, What is the cost of fruit juice If all of us drink daily one glass? " "Can we afford to meet its cost, If all of us daily take it? " So, he rejected this very thought As they could not easily afford it. He had such a noble mind, That he was always concerned More about others' interests Than his own personal benefits. In all his open conversations, In all his day to day actions, In all his contact with people He was so plain and simple. Perhaps, it was God's will That on the top of the hill He must stay and teach the world On "Who am I, " to reach its end. He could have stayed in a jungle Not to be disturbed by people, But he remained with them all, By his role, as a living example. "Search deep inward yourself, Who am I? " to find yourself." This message he carried himself. By doing this exercise himself.
