This book was released on 2014-08-03 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ramana Maharshi is an exponent on Self-enquiry. He has great devotion and gratitude for Arunachala Siva. He said the holy hill of Arunachala is nothing but a solid mass of bliss of Siva. The devotees of Ramana Maharshi used to go begging for food in the town of Tiruvannamalai and they asked Bhagawan to write poems for singing while begging so that people will recognise them as Ramana Maharshi devotees. Conceding to their request Bhagawan started writing verses, considering himself as bride to the bridegroom Arunachala Siva in which out of love he accuses Arunachala Siva for not fulfilling his spiritual expectations. This type of accusing out of love is called Ninda Stuti (Praising through accusing) which has got its own poetic value. Bhagawan used to do Giri Pradakshina slowly and some verses were spontaneously felt by him and he noted them on the paper. On the whole there are 108 verses, the number is auspicious in Hinduism. Akshara is a sanskrit word which means indestructible letter, Mana in Tamil means marriage, Malai means garland. So the bride Ramana Maharshi prepared the indestructible garland of letters for the bridegroom Arunachala Siva to place that garland around his neck during marriage and in turn expects a garland of grace from Arunachala Siva. So Akshara Mana Malai means marital garland of letters put together by Ramana.

He said the holy hill of Arunachala is nothing but solid mass of bliss of Siva. The devotees of Ramana Maharshi used to go for begging food in Tiruvannamalai town and they asked Bhagawan to write poems for singing while begging so that people will recognise them as Ramana Maharshi devotees. Conceding to their request Bhagawan started writing verses, considering him as bride to the bride groom Arunachala Siva in which out of love he accuses Arunachala Siva for not fulfilling his spiritual expectations. This type of accusing out of love is called Ninda Stuti (Praising through accusing) which has got it's own poetic value. Bhagawan used to do Giri Pradakshina slowly and some verses spontaneously felt by him and he noted them on the paper. On the whole there are 108 verses; the number is auspicious in Hinduism. Akshara is a Sanskrit word which means indestructible letter, Mana in Tamil means marriage, Malai means garland. So the bride Ramana Maharshi prepared the indestructible garland of letters for the bride groom Arunachala Siva to place that garland around his neck during marriage and in turn expects garland of grace from Arunachala Siva. So Akshara Mana Malai means marital garland of letters put together by Ramana Maharshi. I will try to give the meaning of each of 108 verses according to my understanding and any improvements over it or suggestions are welcome. 108 numbers has significance. 9 Planets with their 12 rasis is equal to 108. Human has 27 stars with 4 limbs which constitute 108.The world is made up of 108 elements. Thank you all. In India it is a Hindu tradition to worship and praise Lord Ganesha before starting an auspicious work so that there will be no hurdles during the reseedings of the work. Bhagawan followed the same tradition and asked for the blessings of Ganesha in this verse before starting to write Akshara Mana Malai. The meaning of the verse is as follows: "Gracious Ganesha with your loving hand bless me, that i may make this marital garland of letters worthy of Sri Arunachala Siva the bride groom". Bhagawan himself wrote Akshara Mana Malai in Tamil, Sanskrit and Telugu. As majority of you may not understand the original text in these languages i am providing the meaning the verses only.

This book was released on 2019-01-19 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Essence of Inquiry” contains Sri Ramana Maharshi’s earliest recorded teaching, Self-Inquiry, and a commentary on this scared scripture for the spiritual benefit of the seekers. The text, Self-Inquiry, chronicles the profound dialogues from 1900 to 1902 between Sri Ramana Maharshi and an ardent seeker of truth, Gambhiram Seshiar. This text is a sacred scripture, for a scripture represents a direct revelation of the Truth free of mental conceptions. Bhagavan’s teaching, when placed in printed words, is certainly scripture, for its significance is Truth transcending the words or thoughts utilized for its expression. The commentary helps in understanding the true import of Sri Ramana’s words and is singularly focused on Self-Knowledge and Self-Inquiry. From the Introduction: “One who approaches this sacred scripture with deep devotion and a sincere desire to realize the Self, and who, blessed by His Grace, practices in accordance with the wisdom herein elucidated, will doubtlessly realize the sole-existent Self, the nondual Brahman, and abide as That, of the nature of undifferentiated Being-Consciousness-Bliss.” From the foreword by late Sri A.R. Natarajan, President of Ramana Maharshi Center for Learning:“To write a commentary on the sacred words of Ramana, one has to be constantly perceptive of this ever-flowing grace. It is evident that Master Nome has this perception. The humility with which he has approached this holy work is found in his beginning each commentary with the all powerful twelve word mantra on Ramana “Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Ramanaya”. He closes each commentary with “Ramanarpanamastu – may this be an offering to Ramana”. And what worthy offering it is. With his own experience of the natural state, Nome is able to explain the true import of Ramana’s word with utmost clarity and depth. .. Nome writes not from book knowledge but from experience. This is so from question one to question forty. There is no false note, no wavering of understanding.”

Translated with Commentary by Nome. Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, abiding in the eternal Silence of the Self, composed The Essence of Spiritual Instruction for the supreme good of all in response to the supplications of the devoted Muruganar. The poet-devotee was writing in Tamil the story of the wayward rishis who dwelled in the Daruka forest and practiced rites for the attainment of powers that they desired. Their egos humbled by Siva and perceiving the error of their approach, they humbly sought spiritual instruction from Siva. Siva graciously bestowed the instruction, and it is these teachings that Muruganar requested Sri Bhagavan, Siva himself, to reveal in verse form. So, the Maharshi composed thirty verses in Tamil. Later, Sri Bhagavan translated them into Sanskrit. The Tamil version is entitled Upadesa Undiyar, and the Sanskrit version is entitled Upadesa Sarah and is also referred to as Upadesa Saram. This work is the English translation of the Sanskrit Upadesa Sarah. With each verse there is a ten-point commentary emphasizing the profound significance of the verse for those practicing Self-inquiry in the quest of nondual Self-Knowledge. An appendix that contains just the Sanskrit text with transliteration is included for ease of recitation and similar purposes.

Book excerpt: A Hindu Astrological Pilgrimage into the Life and Moksha of Sri Ramana Maharshi Sri Ramana Maharshi's Moksha is a new interdisciplinary Hindu astrological work in the spiritual spheres of Dharma and Moksha - exemplified through the life and Moksha of Sri Ramana Maharshi. The book throws new light on the nature of Moksha, the necessary and sufficient conditions for its occurrence, and also on the very process of the Maharshi's Moksha itself. Astrologers and seekers alike travelling on diverse paths will find in this book astonishing new insights, which will enable them to see 'order', for the first time, in the field of their enigmatic spiritual lives; a field wherein they would have seen previously no definitive pattern of spiritual destiny at all - but only a seething confusion of disillusionment and belied hopes. The author's unwavering devotion to the teachings of his four Spiritual Masters: Sri Ramana Maharshi, Sri Sri Bhagavan, Sri J. Krishnamurti and Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, has certainly imbued the work with a spiritual intensity that is devoid of all narrowness.

Book excerpt: In 1901, a young man was sitting on the holy mountain Arunachala in South India, when a scholar came to him with burning questions about the nature of Truth. As he was not speaking at that time, the answers were given in silence, written in the sand. The young man was to become the renowned Saint Sri Ramana Maharshi. Twenty years after the initial interview, in the early days of the Ramana Ashram, he himself edited his answers given that day, which became the first ashram publication setting out his essential teachings. Sri Ramana Maharshi The Indian Saint was born in 1879. After coming to the holy mountain Arunachala aged seventeen, his early years there were alone and silent. In the 1920s he moved to a permanent place at the foot of Arunachala and the present ashram was constructed. Here he lived and taught until his death in 1950. Many people from all over the world visited Sri Ramana at the ashram, coming to directly experience his spiritual power and the profound peace and simplicity of the ashram.
