Even now I do not see Your Form ! What can I say to the people who ask, "What if the form of your Lord ?" Which is Your (real) form ? Notes: 1. Does the God on Its own would look half male half female like ardhanArIshvara or would appear in yoga form like dakshiNAmUrthi or would be dancing as naTarAja or.... ? Which is the real form of God ? The answer is as appar beautifully describes, "avanaruLE kaNNAgak kANin allAl ippaDiyan in^n^iRaththan ivaNNaththan, ivaiRaivan enRu ezudhikkATToNAdhE" (Unless seen with His Grace itself as eyes, it cannot be written down as to whether It is this way, this colored, this featured etc.) ammaiyAr as if putting an unknowing question exposes the tip of a great iceberg. c.f. "orun^Amam Oruruvam onRum ilArkku Ayiram thirun^Amam pADi n^Am theLLENam koTTAmO" - thiruvAcakam ===== --------------------------- Visit Shaivism Home Page at http://www.shaivam.org --------------------------- Mail Plus – Powerful.
