Atma Vidya Kirtanam (Song on Self-Knowledge)
ஆன்ம வித்தை கீர்த்தனம்

A short Tamil song written in 1927 from a refrain by Muruganar. Its central idea is that knowledge of the Self is the easiest and nearest thing, because the Self is always present: one need only let go of identification with the body and turn attention to its source for ignorance to dissolve. It is included in the collected works.

Authorship note
Muruganar composed the opening refrain and asked Ramana to complete the song. No Spanish edition located; the Spanish title is a descriptive translation.
