in front of the old hall

Murali and I took eight hours to walk around the Arunachala hill.

Although he intended to stay only for one day I convinced him to extend his stay to three days and on each of the three days we did the girivalam together (circumambulation of the hill).

On the second day he fell ill - still we did it, as it was always recommended by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, even to people who had disabilities. So on this last day, instead of the usual 3 hours, it took us 8 because we paused every now and then, taking rest, eating of drinking something. Here we stand, after the walk, in front of the old hall where the sage Sri Ramana Maharshi sat and taught mostly in silence.

- A blessing to have been there.
