ALL IS ATMAN :
This is an excerpt of an article written by SS Cohen: -
"Her very Presence silently exhaled the perfume of Purity and joyful innocence which pervaded and won all hearts. Her childlike, guileless laughter, the hope She instilled in the minds of the troubled questioners, the deep sympathy and understanding with which She met their suffering, gave immense solace and turned sorrow to happiness and at times to tears of relief.
On 5 November, 1952, Shree Shree Ma arrived at the Ashram. Ma had come specially to Sri Ramanasramam to lay the foundation stone for the construction over the Samadhi of Sri Bhagavan. She went round the Ashram to see the places sanctified by the Holy Presence of Sri Ramana Bhagawan in His life-time. Before His Samadhi She reverently stood with folded hands and enquired about how the sacred body had been buried. Those who were present on that occasion still remember and recollect the meticulous and measured way She handed over brick after brick to lay the foundation. She then strewed flowers over the foundation stone to the joy of all present.
Then She made the eight mile pradakshina of Arunachala Hill by car. Later that evening She delighted the Maharshi's disciples by leading the bhajan in calling the name of Bhagawan: "O Bhagawan! Eh Bhagawan! Ha Bhagawan!" for about 10 minutes, suitably changing the modulation of the tune and the words of the appeal at each call. Her delicate pure voice made the glory of Her Spiritual State all the more captivating.
The following morning as Ma was about to leave, the Managing committee approached Mataji and with folded hands begged Her to visit the Ashram again, to which She smilingly replied:-
"I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE: I AM ALWAYS HERE. THERE IS NO GOING NOR COMING -- ALL IS ATMAN."
These words very much reminded us of the very words of our Divine Guru Sri Ramana Bhagawan."
JAI MA! JAI BHAGAWAN!
