Once Bhagavan composed twenty Tamiḷ stanzas containing his important teachings. They were not written in any particular order to form a poem. Sri Muruganar, therefor suggested that Bhagavan should write twenty stanzas more to make the conventional forty. Accordingly Bhagavan composed twenty more stanzas. Out of these forty stanzas Kavyakantha Ganapati Muni selected two as the invocatory stanzas. Then Bhagavan wrote two more to complete the forty. Some of the stanzas were translations from Sanskrit, but as devotees wanted all the forty verses to be original they were eliminated and new stanzas

Ulladu Narpathu by Shri V. Krithivasan at SF Bay Area Satsang : Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi's Ulladhu Narpathu Verse 40 by Shri V. Krithivasan

Sri Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950) is one of the greatest sages of modern India. He was a living embodiment of pure consciousness, the one ultimate reality as expounded by Hinduism's Advaita Vedanta philosophy.


Even though the Maharshi taught primarily in silence, he also gave verbal instruction that flowed authoritatively from his direct experience of the truth of one consciousness pervading all. His primary teaching was that of Atma Vichara (self-enquiry). This is not a new method. However, in ancient times it had been a path reserved for the heroic few who could strive in solitude, withdrawn from the world in constant meditation. What Sri Ramana Maharshi did was to restore it in a new form combined with karma marga (the path of action), in such a way that it could be used in the conditions of the modern world. Since it requires no ritual or outer form, it is in fact the ideal and direct method for the needs of our times. For one who found Self-enquiry too difficult, he recommended the path of bhakti (devotion) and saranagati (surrender).


More than 70 years after his samadhi, devotees from all over the world continue to feel his living presence. Now, as then, he guides whoever approaches him. To all who seek, he is here.

Sri Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950) is one of the greatest sages of modern India. He was a living embodiment of pure consciousness, the one ultimate reality as expounded by Hinduism's Advaita Vedanta philosophy.


Even though the Maharshi taught primarily in silence, he also gave verbal instruction that flowed authoritatively from his direct experience of the truth of one consciousness pervading all. His primary teaching was that of Atma Vichara (self-enquiry). This is not a new method. However, in ancient times it had been a path reserved for the heroic few who could strive in solitude, withdrawn from the world in constant meditation. What Sri Ramana Maharshi did was to restore it in a new form combined with karma marga (the path of action), in such a way that it could be used in the conditions of the modern world. Since it requires no ritual or outer form, it is in fact the ideal and direct method for the needs of our times. For one who found Self-enquiry too difficult, he recommended the path of bhakti (devotion) and saranagati (surrender).


More than 70 years after his samadhi, devotees from all over the world continue to feel his living presence. Now, as then, he guides whoever approaches him. To all who seek, he is here.

Sri Muruganar, therefor suggested that Bhagavan should write twenty stanzas more to make the conventional forty. Accordingly Bhagavan composed twenty more stanzas. Out of these forty stanzas Kavyakantha Ganapati Muni selected two as the invocatory stanzas. Then Bhagavan wrote two more to complete the forty. Some of the stanzas were translations from Sanskrit, but as devotees wanted all the forty verses to be original they were eliminated and new stanzas
