Arutperunjothi Agaval: Couplet: 724
என்பெரும் பதியே யென்னுயி ரியலே
என்பெரு நிறைவே யென்றனி யறிவே!
My
Supreme
Being,
The
Very
Essence
Of
My
Life,
My
Greatest
Consummation,
And
My
Incomparable
Intelligence,
OmniLight Of Supreme Compassion!
Notes:
In this couplet, Ramalingam continues to celebrate his realization of the OmniLight and the nature of his realization.
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.
