In Keerti Tiru Ahaval, Muruganar says:
Annaiyai tan sevadi nizhal serkumun....akanda sivanubhava vaalaRi
aLithum. (Lines 220 to 228)
"Before He took my mother to His Feet, in His own way, He took me,
who was bewildered in a state of confusion, without knowing the goal, into the forest on the pretext of picking leaves for leaf plates.
He then gazed me with all love and extinguished my individuality.
He, in that dead of night, conferred me the Akanda Sivanubhava
Knowledge."
In Piditha Pathu, however, Muruganar mentions the same incident
in Verse 10.
I was simply feeling lazy, ever in sleepy condition, with all inner
miseries. Before I died and became a heap of ashes, You showed
me the Satchitananda state of naturalness, in Palakottu by imprisoning me and take me there. O Venkata, sweet like a Jack fruit, I am holding you firm, where can you go hereafter?"
David Godman has described these in detail, in Part II of the Power
of the Presence. He also says, to say that awakening took place
for Muruganar on his first visit, is unsupportable.
Muruganar describes this Anubhuti state, also, in his famous Sri
Ramananubhuti - Sri Ramana Experience. [1948]. This book has
been translated by Robert Butler. Some verses have been given
by David Godman in the account referred to above.
