Please read The Commentary on Mind from The Teachings of Inner Ramana and contemplate it with your inner teacher. Follow inner prompting regarding the best way to contemplate the reading with the inner teacher. If you don’t feel a specific prompt, ask the inner teacher to share whatever is most important for you to know, see or realize regarding this message.
If prompted, review the tip from Day 295.
Beginning today, instead of contemplating the Thought of Awakening with the inner teacher, contemplate the messages from The Teachings of Inner Ramana with the inner teacher each day. (Reference today’s tip.)
For the remainder of Year 2, use each day’s Thought of Awakening as a prayer that you return to throughout the day in order to remain in a state of devotion.

Holy Spirit,
let me remember
that a bird is not a bird,
a hand is not a hand,
a body is not a body.
Let me remember
that the sky is not the sky,
the clouds are not clouds
and rain is not rain.
All that my mind shows me
as I look upon the world
is an error and a mirage.
How can I think I know
based on what I see and experience?
To think I know
based on what I see
is to be a fool
believing a fool’s images.
Let me be wise
and trust not my sight.
Let me surrender fully
to You.
Amen.
~A prayer of awakening
