Selections from Padamalai cont'd

 

THE SELF

 

Padamalai 32

 

Let us fix our thoughts upon the absolute perfection whose nature is the mauna

(silence) that never perishes, that exists as the surpassing purity of grace's

expanse, as the truth of the Self that shines within the Heart, knows the Real

I-I, having abandoned the pathway of the five senses.

Note: Padamalai is the advanced teaching of Sri Bhagavan as given to Muruganar

and recorded by him in Tamil verse, edited and translated by David Godman and

Robert Butler in aphoristic form. Padam means the Foot of the Guru and Bhagavan

in the Heart. AJ
