What is the mind? If you search for it, there would be no separate entity as the mind.
The mind is only a bundle of thoughts. They are dependent on ‘I’ thought. Know ‘I’ thought to be mind.: Maharishi Ramana.

One’s ignorance of the Self-revealing immediacy of the divine: Grace is no proof of the contrary. If the owl doesn’t see the sun that illuminates he whole world, is it the fault of the Sun? Is it not due to the effectiveness of the bird’s sight? : Maharishi Ramana.
We can not attain Self-realisation of the Self by our mind unaided by God’s grace: Maharishi Ramana.
Grace is there all along. Grace is the Self. It is not something to be acquired. All that is necessary is to know its existence. In the same way, the sun is pure brightness. It is there and shines, and you are surrounded by sunlight; still, you want to know the sun, you must turn your eyes in its direction and look at it. Similarly, Grace is only to be found by effort. However, it is here and now: Maharishi Ramana.
The repose of being poised in one’s true nature, devoid of thoughts, is the highest devotion. It comes from the strength of meditation, Maharishi Ramana.
So long as these thoughts of activities are there sleep will be there. thoughts and sleep are counterparts of the same thing; Maharishi Ramana.
Success is turning the mind inward is achieved by practice and dispassion and it succeeds only gradually; Maharishi Ramana.
Even though the mind and the world rise and set together, it is the mind that lights the world.
The source from which the world and the mind rise and into whichich they set is the reality, which does not rise or subside.
Maharishi Ramana.
Comment: When our mind goes outside the meaning of worldly objects, we feel pleasure and pain. But when it goes inward, it emerges into reality. This stage is of Samadhi.
On the rising of the ‘ego’, everything rises with its subsidence al subside. The ‘ego’ therefore all. Tracking it is the way to victory over everything. —Maharishi Ramana.
