What is misunderstood about Self-Inquiry, Ramana Maharshi's Most Direct Teaching, and More...

After Ramana Maharshi's passing, Self Enquiry (asking "Who am I?")—incidentally not Bhagavan's first choice of teaching—has sometimes been taken as a mechanical practice or mantra. But the investigation must be real and alive, not merely a repetitive phrase. The understanding that flows from a genuine investigation leads to the truth itself, which is the same for all.

Plan A: Tatvamasi (You are [already] That.)
Plan B: Self enquiry

0:00 Method vs direct transmission
0:56 Ramana Maharshi's first choice of teaching
2:46 It doesn't always make sense to ask "Who am I?"
5:10 Wrong interpretation that you must ask "until the world disappears"
9:40 Regarding the sharing of understanding
12:00 This truth belongs to all
