Guest guest Posted February 14, 2002 Report Share Posted February 14, 2002 This is one of the Five Hymns in Praise of Ramana written by Satyamangalam Venkataramana. He was one of the very early devotees. Besides the hymns there is nothing more known about him. "Raman is Sun, Moon and the stars revolving, Ramana is the gem-like light within all life. Ramana is the God aswing on the wheel of Revelations. Ramana is the blissful Lord of the World of Jnana. In a second he frees our mind of all thought And keeps it steady At the feet of Siva, crescent-crested. He struck my cheek with his glance of Grace Saying, 'Of what use are empty words? Look here, Venkataramana, have the direct Vision Of the Self Supreme here and now'." (The Mountain Path, 1975, p.158) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
