shivAnandalaharI - shrI ramaNa's selection

[Guest guest]

Out of his boundless compassion, bhagavAn shrI ramaNa mahaR^iShii selected

10 verses from shivAnandalaharI in a particular order so that they can

easily memorized and remembered. It will not be an exagerration to say

that shivAnandalaharI is a bhakti shAstram. Here are the 10 verses

selected by ramaNa. You can find word-by-word meaning of entire text in

www.vidyavrikshah.org. There are enormous prerequisites to do AtmavichAra.

OTOH to worship God, the very desire to worship is enough. In this text

you will find an brilliant outpouring of bhakti from shrI shankara, which

reminds the sAdhaka on what is important and what is not.
