Arutperunjothi Agaval: Couplet: 491
அருணெறி யொன்றே தெருணெறி மற்றெலாம்
இருணெறி யெனவெனக் கியம்பிய சிவமே!
“The
Path
To
Realizing
Arul,
The
Light
Of
Divine
Compassion,
Is
The
Path
Of
Intelligence,
Insight,
And
Wisdom,
The
Rest
Are
Paths
In
The
Darkness
Of
Ignorance”
Thus
Declared
Divine OmniLight Supreme Intelligence!
Note: The Light of Divine Compassion is present in all the four levels of existence: inmost, inner, outer, and outermost. But one must consciously realize it.
The Arutperunjothi Agaval is Ramalingam’s magnum opus of spiritual enlightenment poetry composed in 798 couplets in 1872. In later posts, I will offer commentaries on these verses.
