Description

Happiness and the Art of Being is an introduction to the philosophy and practice of the spiritual teachings of Bhagavan Sri Ramana. The book explores the idea that true happiness arises from within, and can only be experienced by attaining self-knowledge - a clear consciousness of one's essential being, "I am". The philosophy of Sri Ramana is based on his experience of non-dual self-knowledge, which transcends all thought. However, our imagination of duality and multiplicity can make it difficult to grasp this absolute knowledge. To overcome this, Sri Ramana presented his philosophy in a rational and logical way, using self-investigation as a means to achieve self-knowledge. This book provides a theoretical foundation for the practical science of self-investigation, which is the art of keenly self-attentive and thought-free being. By exploring the teachings of Sri Ramana, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the nature of the self and the path to true happiness.
