மாட்டுப் பொங்கல் – mattu pongal
SriRamanasramam, 16 Jan 2023
recitation by Sangeetha Swaminathan
The inner meaning of Pongal is realizing the ever flowing light of Atma vidya, which is to abide in the blazing light of the Self. Knowing this secret will drive away the Maya which binds the spotless Jiva to its five senses driving it outwards. Devotees who know this truth by the Grace of Lord Ramana’s feet won’t celebrate Pongal once a year on a particular day; they will celebrate everyday and everywhere for it is always Atma Pongal, which is nectar-like and available always
