अहमपेतकं निजविभानकम् ।महदिदं तपो रमणवागियम् ॥
अहम् अपेतकं निजविभानकम् महत्इदं तपो रमणवाक्इयम्
In plain words
Being, with no 'I' left inside it, quietly lighting itself: that is the great austerity. No fasting. No forest. No ordeal. Just this. And this — says Ramana — is all I have to say.
Word for word
Devoid of 'I', shining by its own light — this is the great austerity. This is Ramana's word.
