The powerful teachings of one of India's most revered spiritual masters

'Our own Self-realization is the greatest service we can render the world'

The simple but powerful teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi, one of India's most revered spiritual masters, continue to enlighten and enrich over sixty years after his death.

Be As You Are is the definitive compendium of his knowledge, edited by the former librarian from Sri Maharshi's ashram, which can be found flourishing at the foot of the holy mountain of Arunchala. The book collects conversations with the many seekers who came to him for guidance, answering the questions sought on the road to enlightenment.

Through this book, we can discover the essence of Sri Ramana's teaching- that self-realisation is the vital quest we must all pursue, before we can attempt to understand the world.

Reissue of the classic spiritual work, updated with a new cover.

Reviews for Be As You Are

'... the book presents a rich canvas of Brechtian theatre and presents material that is new, in a new way. Both Brecht scholars and scholars interested in political theatre (not only in the GDR and South Africa) will find this volume of great interest and offering a rewarding and complex analysis.' Monatshefte '... stimulating ... Kruger helps open up fascinating territory with which we should all be better acquainted. ... Informative and thought-provoking ...' New Theatre Quarterly 'Kruger excellently explicates the plays she uses as textual representations for these culturally discursive movements. Each chapter is unpacked through the close analysis of multiple dramatic pieces or theoretical publications, and the even balance between the text and its contexts is maintained throughout.' Medienwissenschaft 'I particularly recommend reading the passages on Muller's plays and theatre productions ... The book provides valuable insight into complex socio-cultural realities and the 'real history' of Marxist-orientated critical intellectuals ... a highly recommendable contribution ...' African Theatre
