at once the Psychic Being, the Atman and the Ishwara. So it is a little
difficult to know what is the exact reading.Sri Aurobindo

Ramana Maharshi [2]
Ramana Maharshi seems to agree to some extent with your views. He seems to believe in Grace and takes the position that the Real Self is in the heart, something akin to the psychic being. That means he is less of a Shankara Adwaitin.
According to Brunton’s description of the sadhana he
(Brunton) practised under the Maharshi’s instructions, it is the Overself one has to seek within, but he describes the Overself in a way that is
at once the Psychic Being, the Atman and the Ishwara. So it is a little
difficult to know what is the exact reading.
