om namo bhagavate sri ramanaya

Doctrine of No Birth (Ajata)

100

To meet the needs of various seekers

Master Ramana did expound

Various doctrines. But we have

Heard him say that his true teaching

Firmly based on his own experience

Is Ajata.

[Ajata = No birth, unborn. The Self is immutable. Birth, death and the world

process are all appearances.]

101

This truth supreme alone is what

The Lord revealed to Arjuna

At first. But finding his friend's mind

Bewildered, reeling, Krishna later

Spoke of other doctrines.

[in chapter II of the Gita the ultimate Truth is taught. The later chapters

provide approaches and approximation.]

(Sri Muruganar's The Garland of Guru's Sayings - Trans. Prof. K. Swaminathan, Tiruvannamalai; 1996)

--

"ekam sat vipraa bahudhaa vadanti

That which exists is One; sages call it by various names."
