[Advaita-l] Sri Bhagavan Ramana Says

[balagopal ramakrishnan]

Namaste,
You have thrown a veritable, powerful, loaded, potential aphorism, 'sUtRa'.
MahaRshi recognised his already 'mokshafied' state. As he did not follow the 'sampRadAya', he could only declare the ultimate state, mental attitude and not how one could recognise that from the clutter. That, one will have to extract from - 'summa iru'. 
In 'BhAgavatham' , 'ajagaravRutti' of King Rishabha is told. Probably that might be the ultimate 'suma iru' !
Swami ParamARthAnanda Ji quiet often tells the story of a newly arrived Temple Administrator. 
While checking the expenses he found an interesting head - expenses towards 'summa irikkaNu Swamiyaar'. The fresh Administrator ordered an immediate stoppage. Since others had great respect for the Swamiyaar they requested the Administrator himself may inform the Swamiyaar regarding the new dispensation.
Thus he went to the 'summa irikkaNa Swamiyaar' and informed him.He told him - what nonsense is this. Why should we bear a lazy person. Swamiyaar politely asked him to try what he is doing - 'summa irikkaNam'. 
Admin took the challenge and sat down simply. . Sooner than later he became restless and couldn't bear the pressure 'TO BE ACTIVE' . He threw up his hands and left leaving the Swamiyyar quiet eligible for a still higher allowance from the Temple Trust.
Swamiyaar continued to be the 'summa irikkaNu Swamiyaar'.
Thanks Venkata Sriram Ji, for this single bullet capable of destroying 'samsaara' for a 'mumukshu' who is an 'utthama sdhikaari' who having recognised the end goal will , with the grace of BhagavAn, reveive the 'jnAnam' from a 'shrotRiya BrahmanishTa' and sit 'summa'.
