शरभ उवाच । अंतःकरणमात्मेति यदज्ञानाद्विमोहितैः । भण्यते रमनाथं तमात्मानं प्रणमाम्यहम्
śarabha uvāca | aṃtaḥkaraṇamātmeti yadajñānādvimohitaiḥ | bhaṇyate ramanāthaṃ tamātmānaṃ praṇamāmyaham
शरभ म्हणाला—अज्ञानाने मोहित झालेले काही जण अंतःकरणालाच आत्मा म्हणतात. मी त्या परमार्थ आत्मा रमनाथाला प्रणाम करतो.
Śarabha
Tirtha: Rāmanātha (Rāmeśvara)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Śarabha, in reverent posture, points inward to the heart-lotus while a radiant liṅga of Rāmanātha stands behind, signifying the true Self beyond mind.
The mind is not the true Self; the real Ātman is identified with Ramanātha (Śiva), worthy of reverent surrender.
Rāmeśvaram/Setu, where Ramanātha is adored as the inner reality.
Praṇāma (prostration/salutation) is expressed; no detailed pilgrimage rite is specified in this verse.
