Rumi and Maharshi
We rarely hear the inward music,
But we're all dancing to it nevertheless.
-- Rumi
All are seeing God always,
But they don't know it.
--Sri Ramana Maharshi

There is no difference between the dream and the waking state
except that the dream is short and the waking long.
Both are the result of the mind.
Our real state is beyond the waking, dream and sleep states, called turiya.*
-Ramana
*According to Swami Sivananda, turiya is the fourth state of consciousness in which the individual
rests in Satchidanandam (“ever-existing, ever-conscious, ever-new bliss”). ...
The individual soul realizes and transcends the three states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Thank you for putting this up MH.
This Turiya (Turiyatith) state is the real test of accomplishment.

Time is only an idea.
There is only the Reality.
Whatever you think it is,
it looks like that.
If you call it time, it is time.
If you call it existence,
it is existence,
and so on.
After calling it time,
you divide it into days and nights,
months, years, hours, minutes, etc.
Time is immaterial
for the Path of Knowledge.
Ramana Maharshi

Happiness is the result of an enlightened mind whereas suffering is caused by a distorted mind.

The best way to meditate
is through meditation itself.

Be what you are
That which is, is ever present
Even now you are It,
And not apart from It.
Ramana
Your task is not to seek for love,
but merely to seek and find all the barriers
within yourself that you have built against it.
Rumi

God has no resolve;
no karma attaches itself to Him.

Without understanding yourself,
what is the use of trying to understand the world?
Ramana Maharshi

This is how I would die
into the love I have for you:
As pieces of cloud
dissolve in sunlight. -Rumi
The wise person looks upon
both paper and script as one. -Ramana

Silence is also conversation.
