These films, taken mostly by his devotees, affords us a remarkable opportunity of viewing a fully-enlightened sage who in the 20th century lived like an ancient rishi of yore. Two of the films were professionally produced by the Indian Information Bureau as newsreels with soundtracks and shown throughout India in cinema houses.

Arunachala Giripradakshina cover

Arunachala Giripradakshina

The Arunachala Mountain is situated 125 miles southwest of Chennai in the State of Tamil Nadu, South India. It is known as one of the most sacred places in India, and now in the West its fame has grown as the home of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, known also as the "Sage of Arunachala". To perform Giripradakshina (going around the Hill in a clockwise direction), with mind fixed on the Mountain, is perhaps the most spiritually beneficial act that anyone can perform.

This video takes the viewer on a complete circuit of the Holy Hill, with visits to the hallowed shrines that surround it, accompanied by the Five Hymns to Arunachala, as sung by devotees at Sri Ramanasramam.
