Arutperunjothi Agaval: Couplet: 498
அருணிலை யொன்றே யனைத்தும் பெறுநிலை
பொருணிலை காண்கெனப் புகன்றமெய்ச் சிவமே!
“Abidance
In
Arul,
The
Light
Of
Divine
Compassion,
Achieves
All.
It
Is
The
Attainment
Of
Enlightenment
And
Adepthood”
Avered
Absolute OmniLight Intelligence!
Note: The Light of Divine Compassion is present in all the four levels of existence: inmost (soul), inner (mind), outer (body), and outermost (world). But one must consciously realize and express 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.
