Selflessness and self-attentiveness

In a Zoom meeting with Ernesto and Carlos of ‘Yo Soy Tu Mismo’ (a group of Spanish devotees of Bhagavan Sri Ramana) on 7th September 2021, Michael James answers the question:

‘I have heard you and Ernesto say that you do not teach or that you do not do this for others but for yourselves. Isn't this, in a way, selfish, while your perception of being a body and a person has not yet ceased?’

While answering these questions Michael refers to and/or discusses the following passages from Bhagavan’s writings:

Nāṉ Ār? paragraphs 9, 10, 13 and 20

Uḷḷadu Nāṟpadu verses 26 and 38

The note he wrote for his mother in December 1898
