Akshara Mana Malai(Tamil)
By Bhagawan Ramana Maharshi
Translated By P.R.Ramachander
Scented garland arranged Alphabetically.
Bhagwan Ramana was a great sage who lived in the Arunachala Mountains in Thiruvannamalai. He was not a sanyasin and used to make it clear that he was not having any Guru. His scholarly nature and the life of utter simplicity that he led, attracted many followers.
“During the early years of Sri Bhagavan's abode at Virupaksha, Palaniswami and others used to go into town to beg food for the small group of devotees, and one day they asked Sri Bhagavan for a devotional song to sing as they went. He replied that there were plenty of sublime songs composed by the Saints, many of them neglected, so there was no need to compose a new one. However, they continued to urge him and some days later he set out on pradakshina round the Hill, taking a pencil and paper with him, and, on the way, composed the hundred and eight verses.
Tears of ecstasy streamed down his face as he wrote, sometimes blinding his eyes and choking his voice. The poem became the great devotional inspiration of the devotees. All the pain of longing and all the bliss of fulfillment are mirrored in its glowing symbolism. The perfection of Knowledge is combined with the ecstasy of devotion. And yet this most heartfelt of poems was composed from the standpoint of the devotee, of one who is still seeking. It is also an acrostic, its hundred and eight verses beginning with the successive letters of the Tamil alphabet. Nevertheless, no poem could be more spontaneous. Some devotees asked Sri Bhagavan the interpretation of some of the verses and he replied: "You think it out and I will too. I didn't think while I was composing it; I just wrote as it came." [1]
The Tamil explanation was written by a close devotee of the sage named Muruganar. He used to have discussions about his understanding with Ramana Maharshi. This translation is based on this Tamil exposition.
“Arunachala” literally means “Mountain of the colour of the purple sun.”. This mountain is situated in Thiruvannamalai of Tamil Nadu. Devotees consider the mountain itself as a form of Lord Shiva. “Arunachala” can also refer to Lord Shiva who is consecrated in the temple near “Arunachala.”
Payiram / Recommending verse by Murugan[edit]
Tharuna aruna mani kirana vali nigar, Dharma kshara mana magizh malai, Theru nadiya thiruvadiyar theru maral, Theliya parvuthal porualakk, Karunkara muni Ramana riyanuva, Kaiyinar choliyathu gathiyaga, Varunachalamena ga arivodu, Mazhvar shivanugamalware.
This joyful scented garland,
Which resembles the beam,
Of the rays of the rising Sun,
Was requested for by his devotees
Who chose the streets for removing
The delusion and make people understand
And this was composed by Ramana,
Who was the ocean of pity.
Those who choose to tell this as their refuge,
Would understand that they are Arunachalam,
And reign in the land of Lord Shiva.
Prayer to Lord Ganapathi[edit]
Arunachalavarketha Akshara malai chatha, Karunakara Ganapathiye Karamaruli kaapaye.
Oh merciful Ganapathi, give a hand and help me,
To make a garland of letters suitable for Lord Arunachala.
Refrain ( this refrain has to be chanted after each verse)
