Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 ---dear wai_dk, There are quite a number of Commentaries on this Scripture -otherwise known as the Forty Verses on Reality .The one I enjoy most and which is very complete is the Sat-Darshana Bhashya by K (Kapali Sastri].It was composed under the supervision of Ganapati Muni and approved by Bhagavan. Many consider it to be Masterpiece in the Ramana literature .It contains a long introduction on Ramana's Teaching ,and as well as the commentary ,as an appendix ,the 40 verses in Praise of Ramana by the Muni . Other Members probably have their favourite Commentaries too - so perhaps they will write to you on this site about their preference . Every best wish , in His Grace , Alan The Ashram publish an inexpensive paper back. It has never been out of print since 1931 . <leesin wrote: > Dear Sirs > > Is there any commentary for the following? > > Thanks. > > RamanaMaharshi, Alan Jacobs > <alanadamsjacobs> wrote: > > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > > > > > Supplement to > > > > > > TRUTH REVEALED or SAD-VIDYA (Cont'd) > > > > > > > > > 34.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Dear Sir, There is commentary on the Forty Verses written by Lakshmana Sarma called "Ulladu Narpadu", but it is written in Tamil. It was written in response to a complaint made privately to Bhagavan that Ganapati Muni's teaching had subtly altered Bhagavan's teaching to be in line with his own views on a qualified advaita. The book analyses and comments on each verse of the Forty Verses. These verses did not go through for publication until Sri Bhagavan had given his personal approval. As the author wrote his commentary, he showed the work to Bhagavan. If Bhagavan remained silent on reading the matter, Lakshmana Sarma went away and re-wrote the commentary, each time bringing them back to Bhagavan for checking. It was not until Sri Bhagavan had given His approval that Lakshman then went on to write his commentary on the next stanza. This makes a powerful argument for the book to be "the best" commentary on the forty verses in existence. A rendering of this book written in English by the same author is called "Maha Yoga" (not to be confused with a smaller book under the same name). It has been in publication since 1937, the latest reprint is 2002, published by Sri Ramansramam. Over 250 pages of text. There is also an eGroup — The_Deep_Forty which looks at the words themselves. Perhaps you will write your own commentary one day? anbudan john Siva—Siva RamanaMaharshi, "wai_dk" <leesin@u...> wrote: > Dear Sirs > > Is there any commentary for the following? > > Thanks. > > RamanaMaharshi, Alan Jacobs > <alanadamsjacobs> wrote: > > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > > > > > Supplement to > > > > > > TRUTH REVEALED or SAD-VIDYA (Cont'd) > > > > > > > > > 34.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 om namo bhagavate sri ramanaya 'Men with little book-knowledge have only one family each, consisting of wife, sons, and others: but clever and learned men have in their hearts many families, namely books, which are hindrances to spiritual effort. How can there be deliverance for them.' (v.80 from Lakshmana Sarma's 'Sri RamanaHrdayam') >From Suri Nagamma's 'Letters from Sri Ramanasramam': 2nd July 1949 Bhagavan remarked as follows: 'Ancients have said that the superabundance of book knowledge is the cause of the rambling of the mind. That will not carry you to the goal. Reading of Sastras and becoming Pandits may give fame to a person but they destroy the peace of mind which is necessary for a seeker of truth and deliverance. A mumukshu (a seeker of deliverance) should understand the essence of the Sastras but should give up the reading of Sastras as that is inimical to Dhyana (meditation). It is like accepting the grain and discarding the chaff. There will be many big almirahs with many books. How many of them can be read? There are so many books and religions that one life is not enough to read all the books relating to even one religion. Where then is time for practice? The more you read, the more you feel like reading further. The result of all that is to go on discussing with other people who have books and spend time thus but that will not lead to deliverance. What books had I seen and what Vedanta discourses had I heard except to close my eyes and remain peaceful and quiet during the first two years of coming here.'

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Dear John , There is an English Translation of the 'Forty ' by K.Lakshmana Sarma called Revelation (publ.Ashram 1940).It is a Sanskrit version of the Ulladu Narpadu with an English translation by him. .There is no complete commentary, except for certain verses ,at the back, but the Supplement is added .,and runs on from the Forty with continuous numeration.Whether it is still in print ,I do not know. ..In Talks 446 Grant Duff asks the Maharshi to comment on the difference between the Sat Darshana and Sarma's Maha Yoga where the views appear different.Ramana ended his reply with "There is no difference in the realisation of the Brahmavid...but when the question is raised from the standpoint of the body...they are different.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Om Namo Bhagavathe, Sri Ramanaaya Yes Alan, the book "Revelation" is here. Presumably the reason why the Tamil commentary has not been translated is because it naturally contains many references to the Tamil words used in the text. Lakshmana Sarma also wrote 'Ramanopanishad' (Ramana Upanishad) in Sanskrit. Some of the verses have been translated into English in David Godman's "Power of the Presence" series; they infuse with a vibrant joy. It would be wonderful if the entire work was translated and published as a book. Doubtless the day will come... anbudan John Siva—Siva RamanaMaharshi, "Alan Adams-Jacobs" <alanadamsjacobs> wrote: > Dear John , > > There is an English Translation of the 'Forty ' by K.Lakshmana > Sarma called Revelation (publ.Ashram 1940).It is a Sanskrit > version of the Ulladu Narpadu with an English translation by him. > .There is no complete commentary, except for certain verses ,at > the back, but the Supplement is added .,and runs on from the > Forty with continuous numeration.Whether it is still in print ,I do > not know. > > .In Talks 446 Grant Duff asks the Maharshi to comment on the > difference between the Sat Darshana and Sarma's Maha Yoga > where the views appear different.Ramana ended his reply with > "There is no difference in the realisation of the Brahmavid...but > when the question is raised from the standpoint of the > body...they are different. > > > > RamanaMaharshi, "John" > <bharani@o...> wrote: > > Dear Sir, > > There is commentary on the Forty Verses written by > Lakshmana > > Sarma called "Ulladu Narpadu", but it is written in Tamil.

Perhaps this is why he would sometimes sit with Resident Devotees to study the Rhibu Gita, Ashtavakra Gita,Tripura Rasa,Yoga Vasishta etc. Of course he also wrote, presumably for others to read[see Collected Works]-including Translations from Shankara.He advocated reading the Bhagavad Gita -always-to one Devotee.
