5.0 out of 5 stars An Enlightening and Practical Guide!!, October 18, 2001

This review is from: Be Still And Know . . . (Paperback)

Mr. Ram Varma's BE STILL AND KNOW as a sequel to THIS SPLENDID WORLD OF YOURS is quite an enlightening work of literature and a practical guide for those who seek inner peace through meditation, reflection and the seeking of self. The most distinct feature of this sequel from the author of THIS SPLENDID WORLD OF YOURS is its step by step approach to relaxation, pondering on the issues of life and death and all that falls in between.

The very fact that we have been associated with Mr. Varma's meditation groups for more than five years and have stayed connected with him and the group is in it is a testimony to the value of his contribution in our lives. This connection has brought about quite a revolution in the way we look upon our inter-personal relationship between the two of us and with others. The most important practical lessons that we have absorbed are "Let go" and "stay connected" at all times. Mr. Varma's techniques made us feel connected to the infinite powers of the universe. We are more conscious of the infinite knowledge and the resources of the universe that we can always tap into in our moment of need.

Although I practice medicine and pain management is my specialty, I completely appreciate the benefits of inner meditation in daily life. In fact, relaxation and inner stability helps for the medicine to work effectively. Various meditation techniques and understandings given in Ram Varma's books "This Splendid World of Yours" and "Be Still and Know..." are a tremendous help to realize peace and know real answers from within. They are great interactive guides to take charge of own life and move towards self-sufficiency. Highly recommended books...Dr. N.S.

This review is from: Be Still And Know . . . (Paperback)

Persuaded by my friend Lew almost two years ago to join this newly formed group at the Pine Tree Senior Center, I have come to realize that it has been a major influence on the direction of and the perseverance in my personal growth, emotionally and spiritually. Meeting and being led and taught by Ram Varma, who from the first meeting on emitted an air of such convincing certainty and conviction while at the same time radiating comforting warmth and compassion, was a stroke of fate for me for which I am genuinely grateful.
I had been in doubt of conventional doctrine and in search of "the Light" for a long time, and my past was not unlike Ram's in many ways. But it was his introduction to meditation and self-empowerment in the group setting and the continual exposure to new insights and Ram's infectious positive attitude that opened the door to the world of "inner seeing", an awareness of the self in a completely different way. There isn't a doubt in my mind that this ongoing journey of self-discovery will continue to improve my attitude, awareness, emotional stability, and thus greatly benefit me personally as well as those around me. Ram's two great books "This Splendid World of Yours" and "Be Still and Know..." are of tremendous help in this direction.
