The works of Ramaṇa Maharṣi

Akṣaramaṇamālai

Verse 93

லாபநீயிகபர லாபமிலெனையுற்றுலாபமென்னுற்றனை யருணாசலா

லாபம் நீ இகபர லாபம் இல் எனை உற்று லாபம் என் உற்றனை அருணாசலா

In plain words

You are the profit. There is no other. I have nothing — not in this world, not in the next. That is the audited position. So what did you get out of acquiring me? Show me the entry.

Word for word

You are the gain. Having obtained me, who am without gain in this world and the next, what gain did you obtain? O Arunachala!
