Despite its simplicity, Ramana Maharshi's teaching has great depth. It addresses the deepest questions of human existence - Who am I? What is the nature of reality? What is the purpose of life? - and provides the ultimate answer - the Self.
The teaching goes to the very root of human experience, to the source of all thoughts, all emotions, all experiences. It does not deal with superficial symptoms, but with the fundamental cause of all suffering - the false identification with the body and mind.
This depth is why the teaching has such transformative power. It does not just provide temporary relief or superficial solutions, but addresses the root cause and provides the ultimate solution - the realization of the Self. The depth of the teaching matches the depth of the human need.
