Library
"Books serve to indicate the existence of the path and encourage one to walk on it. But the path is not to be
found in books. It lies within. The books point out the direction, but you must make the journey yourself."
—From Talks with Ramana Maharshi
The Kendram Library offers an extensive selection of books
from Sri Ramanasramam, along with a diverse collection of spiritual literature from various religions and teachings. Inside, visitors will find a contemplative space for reading and reflection. The outside patio provides views of mountains and oak-covered hills. Visitors are welcome to pick up a book and settle into one of the serene sitting areas scattered throughout the grounds where they can absorb and experience the wisdom of the teachings in a peaceful setting.
The tranquil and comfortable atmosphere of the library
offers a lovely space for reading. Whether on the library patio, beneath the open sky, or the shade of a tree, one can read, reflect, and absorb the timeless wisdom surrounded by the the profound stillness of the natural environment..
