00:00 Intro 00:37 Tamil Intro to Ashtakam & Padigam 08:15 Tamil Talk on Ashtakam & Padigam 21:53 English Briefing on Ashtakam & Padigam 27:40 Sample of Bhagavan's handwriting in Tamil 27:53 Arunachala Padigam-Ashram Version 35:07 Arunachala Ashtakam-Ashram Version A devotee of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi (and a follower of this channel) requested that Sri Chandramouli (from Sri Ramanasramam) talk in simple Tamil about the glory of Arunachala Padigam (i.e.The Eleven verses) and Arunachala Ashtakam (i.e. the Eight Stanzas) which form part of Arunachala Stuti Panchakam (The Five Hymns to Arunachala) composed by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. The importance of Arunachala Padigam and Arunachala Ashtakam arises from the fact that these were spontaneous compositions of Bhagavan, i.e. without being requested by somebody else. Moreover, they are a combination of historical facts of Bhagavan's life as well as the quintessence of Bhagavan's teachings. Included in the video is also an English briefing of the significance of these two hymns. Also in the end is the Padigam and Ashtakam rendition by Sri Prabhakaran, with English meanings. #RamanaMaharshi #ArunachalaStutiPanchakam #Ashtakam #Padigam #Ramanasramam #Tiruvannamalai #RamMohanK
