Boy, don’t I know this connection between suffering and awakening! Just ask me! Apart from Indian Gurus, rarely I listen to gems from Eckhart Tolle and Rupert Spira. Tolle’s words mirror Shri Ramana Maharishi who lived in Thiruvannamalai, TN, whose Ashram still attracts devotees/seekers from around the world. May be I had a vision of sakshaath Shri Ramana a couple of days back for a few seconds? He was in a lying position, with his head raised slightly. I don’t know what I did to deserve this darshan. I am a follower of the Shaktha school. Om Shri Arunachaleshwaraya Namaha! My husband is a devotee of Lord Arunachaleshwara (Shvia) (one of the Jyothirlingams) and also Shri Ramana. He especially keeps playing Ramana Malai by Ilayaraja everyday. We have been visiting the hill town since the late ’90s, almost every year. I believe Ma Lalitha Tripura Sundari Herself came as Shri Ramana in my vision. Om Shri Matre Namaha. Engengu kaaninum Shakthiyadaaa.
The gifts Divine Grace has showered upon me overwhelm me. Humbled. I don’t have materialistic aspirations. I am receiving the most precious gift of Divine Grace, what more should I hope for.
