Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi · Volume III

Talk 570

7th November, 1938

A visitor asked Sri Bhagavan:

Nirguna Upāsanā is said to be difficult and risky. He quoted the verse from “Sri Bhagavad Gita”, avyaktāhi etc. (the unmanifest, etc.)

M.: What is manifest is considered to be unmanifest and doubt is created. Can anything be more immediate and intimate than the Self? Can anything be more plain?

D.: Saguna Upāsanā seems easier.

M.: Do what is easy for you.
