Only the One is real - Ramana
The mind turned inwards is the Self; turned outwards,
it becomes the ego and all the world. Cotton made into
various clothes we call by various names. Gold made
into various ornaments, we call by various names. But
all the clothes are cotton and all the ornaments gold.
The one is real, the many are mere names and forms.
