Sadhu Arunachala

About the Author

Sadhu Arunachala, born Arnold Davis in England, was a devoted disciple of the revered Indian sage Sri Ramana Maharshi, whom he first encountered in the 1930s at the sacred Arunachala Hill in Tiruvannamalai. Renouncing his Western life, he adopted the name Sadhu Arunachala and immersed himself in the teachings of Advaita Vedanta, serving as a key figure in documenting the Maharshi's profound insights. His writings bridge Eastern spirituality and Western inquiry, offering accessible guidance on self-realization and the path to enlightenment. Through his intimate recordings of dialogues, Arunachala preserved the essence of Ramana's wisdom for seekers worldwide, emphasizing surrender, inquiry, and the direct experience of the Self beyond the ego.
