From Muruganar's Padamalai

[Guest guest]

From Padamalai- Bhagavan's Utterances as recorded by Muruganar, the great Tamil

poet who was Self Realised through Bhagavan's Grace.

 

Padam

 

P.47

V.77

 

The Grace of Padam*

 

If one turn's one's face steadfastly towards grace, the dark ignorance of

infatuation with the ego will be dispelled, and true Padam* will shine.

 

*Padam may be defined as the lotus FEET of the formless Bhagavan still alive in

the Devotee's heart as his own Self.

 

Note:

 

The book Padamalai translated by Robert Butler and Dr.T.V.Venkatasubramianian

and edited by David Godman is a marvellous book with Ramana's teachings set in

aphoristic form with commentaries for the more mature sadhak. It is available

from the Ashram Book Depot or Amazon.
