Few Children Who Are Associated With Ramana Maharshi

The first batch is, Vilacheri Rangan, Sab Jan Wahab and Mani Iyer,the famous Pokkiri Mani, rogue Mani!These were His childhood friends and they all came to see Him on the Hills later.Then there is the neighbourhood girl, whom Mother Azhagmma had said, would be His wife!But the girl's mother, had said:L"O how can I give my daughter to this chap, who is wearing a koupina and doing odd jobs to mother?"

On the Hills, there were many children.There were urchins who threw stones at Him in Patala Lingam.Then, there was the boy, who saw the tattered towel of Bhagavan Ramana and mischeivously said: "Please give this towel, the Governor is asking for it!"Bhagavan Ramana said:"No,tell Governor that I am not giving the towel!"

There was again a terrribe boy who urinated on Bhagavan Ramana and went away running with "his achievement and glory"!Then there was a young boy, who came and pitied Bhagavan Ramana's "poor condition" and said:"O You have also come away from home like me!You come with me as a child labour to my boss.He will give you work for food sometime.Thereafter, he would give 3 pica per day!"

Then, there were girl children.Rajamma, who used to paint nicely and who played with Bhagavan Ramana.Bhagavan combed her hair and put two plaits on her hair!She has later, made a beautiful painting of Bhagavan Ramana, sitting on a peacock like Skanda.This painting is even now available in the Lunch Hall of Asram.Then, there was Chellmmal, Echammal's daughter, who carried food to Bhagavan Ramana from her grand mother.

Later in the Old Hall, one young boy came and got cured of his blindness, and another of his night blindness.One young boy gave a scholarly lecture in front of Bhagavan Ramana on Vedas and Upanihads for more than two hours.After that he had kept quiet and looked at Bhagavan Ramana and cried:"I am not yet self realized.Please grace me!"
