Arivu
Pages: 69
Book Summary: Arivu (Consciousness) is an exceptionally brilliant poetic composition in Malayalam, set out in fifteen verses by Narayana Guru. Arivu presents Vedanta as restated from an epistemology perspective. Consciousness (Arivu) alone is real. In its absence, the existence or other of anything is irrelevant. Arivu unravels itself as everything, and is categorised into subjective and objective knowledge, both having eight constituent factors each. Therefore the subjective and objective aspects of knowledge have a perfect parity. However, these analyses and classifications are meaningful only when we subject the really indivisible Arivu to such imaginary divisions. 

This poem originally authored in the Malayalam language is simplistically interpreted by Guru Muni Narayana Prasad in this Malayalam book.
