We, at best know about thatha and sometimes Kollu thata, but Ellu thatha and beyond is incomprehensible. <br /><br />Ramana Maharishi was indeed unique. He rarely spoke or communicated and yet attracted so many followers. Adam Osborne was another interesting devotee like Paul Brunton - Adam's father was a follower and lived in Thiruvannamalai where he grew up. Adam , fluent in Tamil, then went on to the US to bring to market the first PC. His ventures failed later on and he returned back to India where he died. He was also a lifelong follower of Ramana Maharishi.<br />Rameshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11782192840421019943noreply@blogger.com
