Guha, indweller of the Heart

He [Bhagavan] then took a piece of paper, wrote a sloka (verse) on it and gave it to me saying, "You can make use of it in meditation."[1]


அறவோர் இருளை அழிப்போன் குகையில்
உறைவான் அளத்தற்க்கொண் ணாதான் - நிறைவொளியோன்
ஆதிசேய் ஞான அயிலான் குகைரமண
நாதனை ஏத்துவோம் நாம்
  
aṟavōr iruḷai aḻippōṉ kukaiyil
uṟaivāṉ aḷattaṟkkoṇ ṇātāṉ - niṟaivoḷiyōṉ
āticēy ñāṉa ayilāṉ kukairamaṇa
nātaṉai ēttuvōm nām
  

He removes the dark ignorance of Brahmins. Residing in one’s heart cave, He is immeasurable. He is perfect effulgence. He is the wise Skanda, son of Ishwara. He is Ramana Natha, residing in our hearts. Let us worship Him.

see T.K.Sundaresa Iyer for the sanskrit version of this sloka
