About this ebook

*Who am I? & Other Collected Works* by Sri Ramana Maharshi is a profound exploration of self-inquiry and the nature of existence. The central teaching revolves around the fundamental question: “Who am I?” Sri Ramana Maharshi presents this not as an intellectual puzzle but as a direct path to self-realization. Through intense self-inquiry, the seeker is guided to look beyond the physical body, the senses, the mind, and even the ego to discover the true Self—pure consciousness and the source of all existence.

The text explains that the true Self is not the body, the mind, or the vital energies but a state of pure awareness. By questioning the nature of the "I" thought and observing its origin, one gradually dissolves the illusion of individuality and merges with the state of being. The practice of self-inquiry quiets the mind and leads to a direct experience of one’s inner nature, which is described as peace, bliss, and non-duality.

In addition to *Who am I?*, this collection includes several of Sri Ramana Maharshi’s discourses and writings, offering guidance on topics such as meditation, surrender, the nature of reality, and the path to enlightenment. The teachings emphasize simplicity, direct experience, and inner stillness as the keys to realizing the Self. Sri Ramana Maharshi’s message remains timeless, guiding spiritual seekers toward inner peace and liberation from the false sense of separateness.

About the author

Sri Ramana Maharshi (1879–1950) is one of the most influential spiritual teachers in the Advaita Vedanta tradition. Born in Tamil Nadu, India, Sri Ramana experienced a spontaneous awakening at the age of 16, leading to a profound realization of the true Self. He spent most of his life at the Arunachala Ashram, where seekers from around the world came to receive his teachings. His method of self-inquiry—asking “Who am I?”—forms the foundation of his teachings, guiding followers to dissolve the ego and realize their inner nature as pure awareness. Sri Ramana Maharshi’s profound insights into non-duality, the nature of mind, and the direct experience of the Self continue to inspire spiritual seekers globally.
