Ramana and a Theosophist

Conversation between Ramana and a Theosophist:
Theosophist: Do you approve of the search for invisible masters by the theosophists?

Ramana: If they are invisible, how can you see them?

Theosophist: In Consciousness.

Ramana: In Consciousness, there are no others!

What is so delicious about this is the contrast between the first answer and the second answer. The first answer, to me, almost sounds as if it is coming from the mouth of a 5 year old child and the second speaks of the highest truth, and very sagely! What a combo!
