OmniLight Invocations 365

சத்திய ஞான சபை (Sathiya Gnana Sabhai) or The Great Hall of Truth-Knowledge, and place of special manifestation of OmniLight, designed by Ramalingam without any formal training in architecture. It was constructed in 1871 and opened to the public in January 1872. It is not a Hindu temple and ought not to be considered one. It has no anthropomorphic idols or images.

Arutperunjothi Agaval: Couplet: 505

அருளே நம்பொரு ளருளே நம்மொளி

அருளே நாமறி வாயென்ற சிவமே!

“Arul,

The

Light

Of

Divine

Compassion,

Is

My

Substance

And

Essence,

My

Illumination.

Verily,

Know

That

I

Am

This

Light

Of

Divine

Compassion!”

Veraciously

Declared

Supreme OmniLight Intelligence!

Note: In these eloquent and sublime couplets, Ramalingam reports the self-revelations of OmniLight.

The Light of Divine Compassion, with its supreme force, 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 in thought, speech, and action.

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 couplets.
