Foreword to Letters From and
Recollections of Sri Ramanasramam

06 December 1978

When the tapas of great devotees reaches a sufficiently ripe stage, they are reborn in this world by God’s grace. When their allotted work is over they go back. To this category belong Kumaraswami, Kumarilabhatta, Jnanasambandar and Sri Ramana Maharshi.

There is no one in this century who has taught Advaita in such an easily understandable manner by the ten-lettered mantra “Neevevarovo telusuko” (find out who you are).

Sri Nagamma Garu obtained shelter at the lotus feet of this eminent Guru, stayed at the Ashram a long time enjoying great bliss, noted down every little incident that happened there and gave to the public in an easily understandable manner the great Truth the Maharshi expounded from time to time. Readers have seen this through her books: Letters from Sri Ramanasramam and My Life at Sri Ramanasramam
