In 1994, the first Westerner to visit Sri Ramana Maharshi had a transformative experience, stating, "For half an hour I looked into the Maharshi's eyes, which never changed their expression of deep contemplation." This encounter led to a realization that the body is merely an instrument of God, radiating divine presence. Many seekers have similarly felt this "God radiating terrifically" during their time with the Maharshi. His presence continues to inspire hope, solace, and genuine spiritual experiences across diverse cultures. For those whose souls may not fully reflect this eternal Divine Presence, the Maharshi offers straightforward teachings to open the heart to the experience of the one self. Bharati Mirchandani's pictorial work beautifully harmonizes the Maharshi's profound presence and teachings. It features portraits capturing the sage's various divine moods, alongside scenes from Arunachala, his sacred abode. This artistic blend of photographs and quotations effectively conveys the Master's message.

Ramana Maharshi war erst 21 Jahre alt, als er die Grundlage für das Büchlein ›Wer bin ich?‹ schuf, ohne dass er je die Absicht hatte, ein Buch über seine Lehre zu schreiben. Er wohnte in der Virupaksha-Höhle auf dem Arunachala. Obwohl er in jener Zeit nicht sprach, fühlten die Menschen instinktiv, dass er ein Weiser war und kamen mit ihren spirituellen Fragen und Problemen zu ihm. Einer von ihnen war Sivaprakasam Pillai, ein Philosoph, der bei einer Finanzbehörde beschäftigt war. In den Büchern, die er studiert hatte, konnte er auf seine existenzielle Frage 'Wer bin ich?' keine Antwort finden. 1902 besuchte er den Maharshi auf dem Berg und stellte ihm seine brennenden Fragen. Ramana schrieb die Antworten entweder auf den Boden oder mit Kreide auf Schiefer. Sivaprakasam Pillai schrieb sich die Fragen und Antworten nachträglich aus dem Gedächtnis auf. Seine Sammlung wurde jedoch erst 1923 als Frage-und-Antwort-Version veröffentlicht. Ramana hat wenige Jahre später davon eine Essay-Version verfasst. Dies ist die Übersetzung der Essay-Version und einiger ausgewählter Gespräche mit Ramana Maharshi.

Der große Klassiker eines modernen, weltbekannten Weisen Ramana Maharshis „Gespräche“ sind bei geistig Suchenden – gleich welcher Religion – überall auf der Welt hoch geachtet. Auch Jahrzehnte nach dem Tod des Meisters sind sie ein unerschöpflicher Quell des Trostes und der Inspiration auf dem Weg nach innen.
