aruna malai guru ramana

" aruna malai guru ramana - one of the best and understandable philosophical song that i have heard.

This is my second post in the list of legendary lyrics. this song is about requesting blessings from the great ramana maharishi to eliminate the thought of ego from our mind, sung by illaiyaraja (IR). Bhagavan sri ramana maharishi is one of the greatest souls in the world. He wrote several books on the concept of self realization titled "who am i". To your left is the photo of ramana maharishi, there is another song by IR in this album, "karanam indri kanneer varum undhan karunai vizhiai kandaal", u can see it why from this photo. In chennai we had a ramana ashramam very close to my house, I used to go there very often but without knowing the greatness of this person. No one really told much about him to me, but it was also my ignorance that I never had the thirst to know about different things. But bhagvan has always been with me and I am blessed to know about him and his greatness atleast now. Below is the lyrics and the song can be listened to in raaga.com and musicindiaonline.com.
