Arunachala is immortal light. A column of fire that existed before time began, the light shone in order that all those lost in worldly forgetfulness might remember their true home. If saints and sages of every land throughout the ages have maintained that a meaningful life cannot be built on the transient things of this world - money, status, material possessions, worldly knowledge and sense pleasures - Arunachala stands as the embodiment of that which gives true and lasting life.
Arunachala is a lingam a sign or symbol of the divine - and by tradition is the very form of Siva. But as an icon to the undying presence that undergirds all of reality, the original light of consciousness that illumines all that is seen and known, Arunachala is the paradigmatic symbol of the Self, the fire of wisdom that promises to burn away the veils of illusion and ignorance.
