Salutations to Sri Ramana Who resides

in the Heart Lotus

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION

Many were the devotees who were attracted to thepresence of Bhagavan Sri Ramana while he was livingin the Virupaksha Cave, situated in the holy region ofArunachala, the Heart Centre of the world, which confersliberation on those who (merely) think of It. They weredrawn to him on account of his wonderful state of tapas

- absorption in the silence of yoga samadhi, which isdifficult of achievement.

One among these devotees was Sivaprakasam Pillai whoapproached Maharshi in 1901-02 with devotion, faithand humility and prayed that he may be blessed withinstructions on Reality.

The questions raised over a period of time bySivaprakasam Pillai were answered by the silentMaharshi in writing - in Tamil.

The compilation (of the instruction) in the form ofquestions and answers has already been translated intoMalayalam and many other languages.

May this Sanskrit translation now made, be crownedwith success !
