the other arunachala !!?

[Guest guest]

Dear anna found this article and wanted to share it.please share with us anything that u know on this subject.Historically people had an almost symbiotic relationship with the

Earth, as a living, sacred source of vitality. We have revered specialsites

that we feel are conducive to our physical, mental and spiritual

revitalization. We build shrines at these sites to focus our attentionand cherish them as repositories of a special energy.Bhagavan

Ramana walked on the sacred Hill of Arunachala each day and spent many

hours gazing at its craggy aspect. The Hill had aspecial and powerful role in His life. He also said that Arunachala is Siva Himself personified. Bhagavan had said Major Chadwick that Arunachala was at the top of spiritual axis of the world. There mustbe

another mountain corresponding to Arunachala at exactly opposite side

of the globe. Bhagavan Ramana also fetched an atlas once and asked him

to see the place. Chadwick found that at the exact place there was

only an ocean about a hundred miles off the coast of Peru in South

America. Bhagavan seemed doubtful about this. An Englishman

some years after Bhagavan's Maha Nirvana, mentioned about a tale of a

spot, supposed to be a great secret power centre in the Andes somewhere

in this latitude. In fact, a spiritual centre had been started there,

in Andes in Eucador. Mrs. Lucia Osborne also discussed this matter with

Major Chadwick. Later in 2000, Dr. Ravi Iyer of Virgina made some investigationinto

the connection between Arunachala and Machu Picchu, the ancient sacred

mountain in Peru. He has written about it in The Maharshi,

March-April 2003.Machu Picchu is the closest known power spot

that resonates great spiritual power. This site consists of an outer

and inner section. Asmall gateway takes you to the religious

sanctuary of Acclas or Chosen Women of Sun God Inti. About 170 burial

sites have been been found at Machu Picchu, of which 150 were women's.

The city represents the immense mysteries of Inca civilization. There

are striking parallels between the Machu Picchu site and the Sakti

culture. The goddess referred to here is Pacchamma, a similarity to Pachai

Amman Temple of Tiruvannamalai. Several siddhis and occult capacities

have been separately asserted, on the psychic plane, on visiting Machu

Picchu. The feminine aspect of the Universe is especially palpable.While

the geographical coordinates are not exactly opposite to those of

Arunachala, it would unreasonable to be exactly opposite, since the

earth is not a precise sphere.The URL to the astrodienst website for latitude and longitudinal determination is http://www.astro.com/aq.cgi?lang=eThe global coordinates of Tiruvannamalai and Machu Picchu are:Tiruvannamalai : 12n13,79e04Machu Picchu: 13s07,72w34The following website will give the precise reverse coordinates ofTiruvannamalai.http://www.fourmilab.ch/earthview/vlaton.html.
