Devotee: I am young and a grihini (housewife). There are duties of grihastha dharma (the household). Is devotion consistent with such a position?
Ramana Maharishi: Certainly. What are you? You are not the body. You are Pure Consciousness. Grihastha dharma and the world are only phenomena appearing on that Pure Consciousness. It remains unaffected. What prevents you from being your own Self?
