The Teachings of BhagavanSri Ramana Maharshiin His Own WordsCHAPTER ONEDEATH AND RE-BIRTHJust as in dreams, you wake up after several new experiences,so after death another body is found. 1Just as rivers lose

their individuality when they dischargetheir waters into the ocean,

and yet the waters evaporate andreturn as rain on the hills and back again through the rivers tothe ocean, so also individuals lose their individuality when theygo to sleep but return again according to their previous innatetendencies. Similarly, in death also, being is not lost.Devotee: How can that be?Bhagavan: See how a

tree grows again when its branches are cutoff. So long as the life source is not destroyed, it will grow.Similarly, latent potentialities withdraw into the heart at deathbut do not perish. That is how beings are re-born. 2Nevertheless,

from the higher viewpoint he would say:In truth there is neither seed nor tree, there is only Being. 31 Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi, 144.2 Talks
