Sannidhi Murai
Sri Bhagavan wrote a Prefatory Verse to the Sannidhi Murai of Muruganar, hailing it as equal to Tiruvachakam of Manikkavachakar and as contributing to the spiritual uplift of mankind. (Moments Remembered, Ch. 8)
The Sannidhi Murai is sung in three formats:
1.) In the Tamil pann-metre, as done by traditional temple odhuvars
2.)With musical accompaniments – many of Muruganar’s works are now available in CD/DVD/audio-cassettes, produced by Ramana Maharshi Centre for Learning of Bangalore

The title, number of the song and its raga are added as a prefix to the audio to enable the practice of singing along with the book (for item-A), while the visual display indicates the title and the number of the songs.
Quote from Bhagavan
Atman alone exists and is real. The threefold reality of world, individual soul, and God is, like the illusory appearance of silver in the mother of pearl, an imaginary creation in the Atman. They appear and disappear simultaneously. The Self alone is the world, the ‘I’ and God. All that exists is but the manifestation of the Supreme.
