Details about Lending

 

- What is the goal?

The Ramana-library shall be built up step by step, and will (eventually) contain

titles in all European languages about Ramana Maharshi, His life, His teaching,

His devotees, Sri Arunachala, and the scriptures which He often quoted.

 

So this is just a beginning. More books will follow in time. Devotees living

within the EU will have the opportunity to obtain Ramana-books to read, which

may otherwise have been hard and/or complicated to get.

 

- Who can borrow?

Any member living within the EU can borrow a book from this list.

Restriction is to EU because of mailing costs.

- Costs

Borrowing is free, but mailing costs have to be taken over when the book is sent

to the next reader within the EU. As mailing costs are according to weight, the

book format is given in the list.

Please note: the mailing cost for books is normally reduced, provided that

nothing else is added when sending, and the envelope is left open. It should be

noted on the envelope, that it contains only books.

 

- Borrowing timeBorrowing time is for 4 weeks from arrival. If no one else has

requested to read the book directly after you, this borrowing time can be

prolonged.

- How does it work?

The idea is that the books shall go on a continuous journey from one devotee to the next.

 

Whoever wishes to borrow a book from this list should first contact me at

ramana-library (AT) gmx (DOT) net and give the title of the requested book along with your

postal address. The book will then be sent out from here for the first time

within 1 week. When you receive it, you have 4 weeks to read. Please confirm

receipt with an e-Mail to me.

 

If/when the book is requested by someone else after your borrowing time is over,

I will write to you and advise of the next postal address. Please send the book

on quickly absorbing all mailing costs. Thank you.

 

If there is no other request to borrow you may keep the book until there is such a request.

 

If the requested book has been borrowed by another member, you will be informed

how long it should take to arrive with you.

 

- And a final request …

If anyone has a Ramana-book to give for the library this would of course be much welcome. Thank you.

 

 

Kind Regards

Gabriele Ebert (Germany)
