Sathya Gnana Sabai

Sathya Gnana Sabai is a universal spiritual hall in Vadalur, Cuddalore district, Tamil Nadu, founded in 1872 by saint and poet Ramalinga Swamigal (Vallalar). Built to propagate his Samarasa Sutha Sanmarga philosophy of universal compassion and worship of Arutperunjothi (Supreme Grace Light), the octagonal hall enshrines no idol but a Jyothi (light) revealed through seven screens. It remains a major pilgrimage and cultural centre, especially during the annual Thai Poosam festival.
