This book covers a vast panorama of over four thousand years from the Rigvedic seers to Ramana Maharshi.
Arunachala, a seemingly insentient hill, and the golden hued Ramana are the embodiment of the fire of knowledge.
The purpose of this book is to rekindle in every human heart this smouldering fire now douched by ignorance.
In one sense this book is really many books rolled into one, at least five or six of them: Arunachala,
the beauty of the hill itself, its caves, the journey to the summit, Arunachaleswara temple, the festivals,
the power of Arunachala to draw to itself all the seekers of truth. It is also the radiance of Ramana.
The places hallowed by Ramana’s presence,
and also the 20th century saints, Mahan Seshadri Swami, Azhagammal are all covered.
