The works of Ramaṇa Maharṣi

Akṣaramaṇamālai

Verse 69

பூமணமா மனம் பூரண மணங்கொளப்பூரண மணமரு ளருணாசலா

பூ மணமா மனம் பூரண மணம் கொளப் பூரண மணம் அருள் அருணாசலா

In plain words

A flower does not work at smelling. The scent is just what it is, spreading. Let my mind be like that with you. Not doing anything. Just full of it, going out. And then let it be a marriage. The word is the same.

Word for word

As a flower's fragrance — that my mind may take on the full fragrance, grant the perfect union. O Arunachala!
