The document is a book written by A. Ramana about realizing the ultimate truth of oneself. It discusses how reading the book repeatedly over time can spontaneously awaken the reader to their true self/nature of pure awareness. The purpose is to realize the non-dual one reality without a second and abide as the absolute, pure awareness at the heart of being, free of identification with the separate ego or body-mind. A. Ramana lived as a devotee of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi and helped others awaken through his organization AHAM.
