thiruchchiRRambalam

 

Meaning:

If one does not pronounce the Holy Five Syllables,

if does not speak the glory of the Fire-like One,

if never circumambulates the divine abode,

if does not offer flowers before having food,

if does not get adorned with white ash to destroy the

severe sickness,

if you ask why did those graceless ones were born,

taking birth and death full of worst diseases

they die only to be born again !

 

Notes:

1. The saint could have said, if one does not

pray to Lord shiva, one would be pushed into the

burning hells, as some other religions do, but he

didn't. It is not the divine concept to prosecute one

for not worshiping. "Typically" one would get the

fruit

of the deeds done in the past. The God Who raised

the flag of bull indicating justice, maintains the

system fairly.

We seek God not out of the fear that otherwise It

would torture us, but we pray to God seeking Its Grace

to act as the powerful merciful external force to pull

us out of the wheel of continuous birth and death that

has the cycles of pleasures and pains. If we don't

seek the Help of that Almighty, we would be dead to be

born again and keep getting crushed under the wheel !

2. thiRam - glory; aLi - grace; n^aliya - in

abundance.
