Five
Stanzas to Sri Arunachala
1. Ocean of nectar, full of grace, engulfing the
universe in Thy splendour! Oh Arunachala, the supreme
itself! Be Thou the sun and open the lotus of my
heart in Bliss!
2. Oh Arunachala! In Thee the picture of the universe
is formed, has its stay, and is dissolved; this
is the sublime truth. Thou art the inner Self, who
dancest in the Heart as 'I'. 'Heart' is Thy name,
Oh Lord!
3. He who turns inward with untroubled mind
to search where the conciousness of 'I' arises,
realizes the Self, and rests in Thee, Oh Arunachala,
like a river when it joins the ocean.
4. Abandoning the outer world, with mind and breath
controlled, to meditate on Thee within, the yogi
sees Thy light, Oh Arunachala, and finds his delight
in Thee.
5. He, who dedicates his mind to thee and, seeing
thee, always beholds the universe as thy figure,
he who at all times glorifies Thee and loves Thee
as none other than the Self, he is the master without
rival, being one with Thee, Oh Arunachala, and lost
in Thy bliss.
These
five gems in arya-giti meter are the essence
of Upanisads, Sri Ramana Maharshis Vision of Arunachala
in the language of the gods.
Ramana Maharshi considers Arunachala to be the Hrdayam
/ Spirityal Heart of the Planet Earth. This is also
stated in Vedic lore and scripture. |
