thirucciRRambalam

 

Meaning:

Unholy town without abode of God,

unholy town where holy ash is not worn;

town where there is no devotional singing bowing down,

town where there are not many well built temples,

town where the white conch is not blown,

town where there is no roof (tower above sanctum) and

white flag,

town where buds and flowers are not offered (to God)

before food,

those are not town, but are (uninhabitable) forests.

 

Notes:

1. Though personal worship is great, it is highly

important to do the external congregational worship.

Importance of temples cannot be understated any time.

The external markings are also very important even

when the focus is on internal maturity. The great

saints

having achieved the path to Bliss do not stop there.

They go temple after temples, they do what is possible

through their mortal instruments to uplift the other

souls.

But for the initial helping hand by such sages,

starting

from the Supreme Itself that showed the way of

worship,

how can one progress in spirituality? Rejoicing in

Bliss,

they serve as, "nyAnam Ican pAl anbE" (Wisdom is love

for God). The ultimate (12th) sutra of

shivanyAnabOdham

says the state of those who have attained

"mAlaRa n^Eyam malin^thavar vEDamum

Alayam thAnum aranenath thozumE"

2. parukkODi - bending the back; thaLi - temple;

vithAnam - roof; aDavi - forest.
