DROPS from the OCEAN

The author of this book, V.Ganesan, grew up till the age of fourteen in the presence of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. After the mahanirvana of Bhagavan in 1950, Ganesan went on to get a master’s degree in philosophy. Then he came for good to Sri Ramanasramam to look after the old devotees of Bhagavan as his sadhana. As a result, he was able to absorb reminiscences of Bhagavan that had never been recorded before. In addition to this, his close contacts with sages like Yogi Ramsuratkumar, Nisargadatta Maharaj and J. Krishnamurti, helped him to deepen and widen his understanding of the essence of Bhagavan’s teachings. This book flows from clear waters that he has imbibed in his almost seventy years of spiritual life, inundated by Arunachala’s ocean of grace. Earnest and serious seekers can meet the author for sat sang, at his cottage ‘Ananda Ramana’, Tiruvannamalai, between 10:00 and 11:00, every morning.
