Thank you for giving your time to help others.
Your act alone speaks a silent lesson as powerful as the words
" Shri Ramana Maharshi was one of the most significant people of this century. He was not a master; that’s why people don’t know him as they know George Gurdjieff or J. Krishnamurti. They don’t even know him as they know Sri Aurobindo or P. D. Ouspensky who were only teachers - profound teachers, but not mystics.
“Ramana Maharshi was a silent pool of energy. Every morning he used to sit for a silent satsang, communion. He never talked much, unless asked something. Then too his answer was very short - having profundity, but you had to look for it. There was no explanation in it. His literature is confined to two, three small booklets.
“His teaching was mostly to be in silent communion with the disciples. Naturally, very few people were benefited by him. But every morning he was sitting, people were sitting, and a cow would come and stand outside, putting her neck through the window, and she would remain standing there while the satsang lasted. It must have continued for years.
People came and went, new people came, but the cow remained constant, coming at the exact time, never late.
“As the satsang would disperse she would move away.
“One day she did not appear, and Shri Ramana said, “Today satsang cannot be held, because my real audience is absent. I am afraid either the cow is very sick or she has died, and I have to go and look for her.” He lived on a mountain in the south of India, Arunachal. The cow belonged to a poor woodcutter who lived near the ashram. Ramana left the temple where they used to meet, went to the woodcutter and asked, ‘What happened? The cow has not come today for satsang.’
“The woodcutter said, “She is very sick and I am afraid she is dying, but she goes on looking out of the door, as if she is waiting for someone. Perhaps she is waiting for you, to see you for the last time. Perhaps that is why she is hanging around a little longer.”
“Ramana went in and there were tears in the eyes of the cow. And she died happily, putting her head in the lap of Ramana Maharshi. This happened just in this century. Ramana declared her enlightened, and told his people that a beautiful memorial should be made for her.
It is very rare for human beings to be enlightened; it is almost impossibly rare for animals to become enlightened, but the cow attained.
“She will not be born again. From the body of a cow she has bypassed the whole world of humanity, and she has jumped ahead and joined with the buddhas. So once in a while - there are a few instances only - it has happened. But that cannot be called the rule; it is just the exception."

Self attentiveness is same as self enquiry or there's diffrence?
Read the story about the 10th man. Then be still.
Self attention self inquiry etc is all the same. Path of shree ramana and talks of Michael James are some books I used to learn more on how to do it.
Self attentiveness is a passive watching
Self inquiry is using a pointed mind to actively investigate

This is just circle talking. Place awareness on the self. Okay. What is the self? Find out through inquiry. Who is inquiring? Inquire into that. On and on and on and on.
The Self is pure conscious awareness, that which is aware of thoughts, emotions etc. So by placing one's awareness back upon itself, thoughts drop away and one may just be. Keep practicing until one merges with THAT.
At the end of the day these are just words pointing at a concept of realizing ultimate truth and wisdom. Words are born or manifested of the mind. The mind can not know beyond itself. Silence the mind by letting go of the constant chasing what it desires and running away from the undesired. What is left? Stay there. These are just words. Sit silently and these words help some aggregate the energy to do that. But the mind is not interested in this. This is not for the mind.
Did you do it and found no results?
