About the Book

The Glory of Arunachala pays an ecstatic homage to the rare liberated souls that wandered through the hallowed region of Thiruvannamalai, who showed the ignorant mankind wherein lay the truth of existence. The peregrination of such souls sanctified the places they visited or stayed and lifted up the people from the mire of samsara. The chronicling of the paths traversed by Seshadri Swamigal and his younger fellow- sojourner Bhagawan Ramana creates a veritable galaxy of spiritual luminaries such as Poondi Samiyar, Vallimalai Swamigal, Mouna Swamigal and others. The impassioned account of Ramana's life from Thiruchuzhi to Thiruvannamalai, is, undoubtedly, the Cereus in the constellation of Orion peopled by countless liberated souls. The textuality of this complex of hagiographies traverses through puranas, sthalapuranas, legends and lore, chronicling the author's efforts to find testimony and corroboration for them. He is eager to prove that such siddhas truly walked this earth and held a light to Reality for

osterity to get enlightened. That is his answer to the question, 'why do we need hagiographies at all?' The lofty spirit and style are meant to reiterate the immense possibility for transformation of consciousness that beckons us from the life and teachings of the countless siddhapurushas and jivanmuktas narrated here.
About the Author: Dr. V. Balasubramaniam, one of the pioneers of Neurosurgery in India, was the author of over 200 scientific papers and four monographs on Neuroscience. The Glory of Arunachala was his maiden venture into the field of spirituality and was motivated as much by his abiding devotion to Ramana Maharishi as his desire to propagate the contents of Mr. Bharanidharan's book Arunachala Mahimai to a wider, non-Tamil speaking reading public.

Having specialized both in General Surgery as well as Neurosurgery, he held the position of Honorary Clinical Professor at the Institute of Neurology, Madras Medical College. During this time he did path breaking work in Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, which also served as the basis for his Doctoral degree. He worked for the Government Mental Hospital, Chennai and for the Southern Railways as a Consultant Neurosurgeon. In addition, he was Consultant and Surgeon in charge of the Pain Clinic, Cancer Institute, Chennai and the CHILDS Trust Medical Research Foundation, Chennai.

In his long and illustrious career, he received numerous awards and academic distinctions, chief among which were the Johnstone Gold Medal, the Panagal Gold Medal and the Sri Rameshwardasji Birla Smarak Kosh Award. (Dr. Balasubramaniam passed away in Aug. 2006 much before this book could be published.)
