Description: This book is the translation of Guru Vachaka Kovai (The Garland of the Guru's Sayings), the inspired poetic work of Muruganar. The first Tamil edition of the book, published in 1939, was personally checked and revised by Ramana Maharshi himself. The verses, recorded by Muruganar in the last decades of Ramana Maharshi's life, cover the full spectrum of his teachings.

This new translation of the entire work includes explanatory notes by Muruganar and supplementary teaching material by Sri Ramana that illustrates or expands on the words of the original text. The book also includes comments and explanations by the editor, David Godman.
