Timčák Ātma vichāra ( Self-enquiry ) is a spiritual practice that has attracted a lot of western attention since 1934 when Paul Brunton (Brunton 1970, 126–157) made Ramana Maharshi from Indian Tiruvannamalai known to the world. Some phenomenological and methodical aspects ofĀtma vichāra are dealt with in this article in order to develop its didactics. The outcomes ofĀtma vichāra courses conducted by the author throughout 40 years were also taken into account in this regard.
