About Sri Ramana Maharshi:
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi (1879 - 1950) was a great sage and enlightened guru who lived in Tiruvannamalai, near the holy hill Arunachala in south India. He went there shortly after his unexpected, spontaneous and sudden enlightenment, at the young age of 16. He lived there until his Mahasamadhi (final conscious release from the body at death) on April 14, 1950, at the age of 71. Dr. Carl G. Jung, the world famous psychologist, once said of him: “In all of India, he is the whitest spot in a white space.”. Sri Ramana Maharshi is one of the most renowned spiritual gurus of India.
