thirucciRRambalam

 

Meaning:

But for showering grace to the devotees on whose mind

He wanders, (though) roams around for alms and does

not eat!

He has no other wealth! One Who has my words as His

words!

The Chief Who holds young crescent on the low lying

twined hair!

Cherishing the seat as ilambayankoTTUr, which is the

bank where

on the fields the waterfalls bring richly the pearls,

gold and gems

that are at the feet of the millet (thinai), is it

(His) character to

capture my charm?!

 

Notes:

1. cambandhar in this song defines the act of God.

All that the God is doing is giving Bliss to those

devoted.

Apart from that, even when It wanders in play taking

alms

or accepting anything for that matter, It has

absolutely no

use of the things. Because other than Itself, It needs

nothing

as wealth to enjoy!!

This underscores the very important characters of

God

a. Being Perfect - needing nothing external

b. Being Fully Merciful - Always, with not even a

slightest

exception, showering grace.

Only the God Who is perfect and is not dependent

on

anything external can provide Bliss. Also only when It

 

is full of grace ever, the continuity of Bliss is

assured

for the soul. Hail that Lord shiva, the Perfect, Who

has

absolutely no use of us, but ever feeding the grace!!

2. "enathurai thanathuraiyAka" is a very important

statement

from this thirumuRai.

God is in everything - in all of us. However only

those who

are tuned with love and austerity could get to listen

to

voice of God. There are those instances where the

message

of God is listened, stored/processed and told out. In

the next

level, whatever listened is repeated out as it is.

However

the shanti pATa in Chandoga upanishad talks of even

higher

level.

"ApyAyantu mamANgAni vAk prANaH chakshush

shrotramato

balamindriyANi cha sarvANi| sarvam

brahmopaniShadaM|"

Here the instruments of speech, sight etc are not at

the control

of the individual. They are directly operating under

the command

of the Supreme brahman. At this point the words coming

out

of the instrument of the individual are directly

linked with God.

That becomes, "my words becoming His words".

(So what is the individual doing at this point? The

upaniShad

also clarifies that:

"mAaham brahma nirAkuryAm| mA mA brahma nirAkarot|

anirAkaraNamastvanirAkaraNam mE astu|"

The individual is embracing God and God holding tight

the

individual, making the job of the individual to enjoy

the Bliss!!)

3. pali - alms; punam - field; iruvi - foot of millet

plant.
