Arutperunjothi Agaval: Couplet: 625
இம்மையு மறுமையு மியம்பிடு மொருமையும்
எம்மையு நிரம்பிடு மென்றனி யின்பே!
Pervading
And
Abounding
In
This
Mundane
Reality,
The
Other
Supramundane
Reality,
The
State
Of
Liberation
From
Both,
And
The
Transcendent
State,
OmniLight Bliss Supreme!
Note: This couplet continues with the series on another aspect of the essential nature of OmniLight: Supreme Bliss (Tamil: இன்பம்; Sanskrit: आनन्द or Ānanda).
Ramalingam has developed the Vedantic notion of Satchidananda in original ways in these couplets on the சத்து or Reality (Sanskrit: सत्) or Sat), சித்து or Intelligence (Sanskrit: चित् or Chit), and இன்பம் or Bliss (Sanskrit: आनन्द or Ānanda) aspects of the essential nature of OmniLight (அருட்பெருஞ்ஜோதி).
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.
