*Arunachalam* represents the 'static' (siva) and dynamic (sakthi) aspects of our consciousness in 'dynamic equilibrium' (siva-sakthi)- the 'ATHMA LINGAM'. ~Swaathmaaraaman


ARUNACHALA

Sri Arunachala Mahatmya
(The Glory of Sri Arunachala)

Nandi said:
‘That is the holy place! Of all Arunachala is the most sacred! It is the heart of the world! Know it to be the secret and sacred Heart-centre of Siva! In that place he always abides as the glorious Aruna Hill!
‘That day on which the ancient and wonderful linga of Arunachala took shape is the asterism of Ardra in the month of Mrigasira. And the day on which Vishnu and the other devas worshipped the Lord who emerged from the effulgence is the day of Maha Sivaratri.’
