You made the devotee's signs and the sacred ash shine upon me, and joined me to the gathering of true devotees.","explanation_ta":"\u0b9a\u0bc8\u0bb5 \u0bae\u0bb0\u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd, \u0b92\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0bae\u0bcd. \u0b8e\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2\u0bbe \u0b92\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bc2\u0bb2\u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba9 \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b87\u0bb1\u0bc8\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0baa\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0b9f\u0bbf. \u0b85\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0b9f \u0ba8\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0ba4\u0bc1, \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3\u0bc7\u0baf\u0bc7 \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0baa\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0b95\u0bcb\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bb2\u0bbf\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b87\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bcb\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb3\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bc2\u0bb2\u0bb0\u0bcd \"\u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3\u0bae\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bcb\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd, \u0b8a\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bae\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bc1 \u0b86\u0bb2\u0baf\u0bae\u0bcd\" \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b87\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc7.\n\n\"\u0b85\u0ba3\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0ba3\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0baf\u0bcd \u0b85\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bbe\u0baf\u0bcd\" \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0b85\u0b9f\u0bbf \u0b95\u0b9f \u0b89\u0baa\u0ba8\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \"\u0b85\u0ba3\u0bcb\u0bb0\u0ba3\u0bc0\u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bb9\u0ba4\u0bcb \u0bae\u0bb9\u0bc0\u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd\" (\u0b85\u0ba3\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc8 \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bcd, \u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0baf\u0ba4\u0bc8 \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bcd) \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc8 \u0ba8\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bc8\u0bb5\u0bc2\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bcd\u0bb5\u0bb3\u0bb5\u0bc1 \u0ba8\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba9 \u0b87\u0bb1\u0bc8\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bc8 \u0b94\u0bb5\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b93\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0baf \u0b89\u0bb5\u0bae\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd: \u0bae\u0bc1\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0baf \u0b95\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3\u0bc7 \u0b87\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b87\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0bae\u0bc8. \u0b95\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bc8\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b87\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0bae\u0bc8 \u0ba4\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bc1; \u0b9a\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc8\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd.\n\n\u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3\u0bc7 \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0baa\u0bb5\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bc6\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bc7 \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0bb4\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bc6\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0b9f \u0bb5\u0bc7\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd. \"\u0bb5\u0bc7\u0b9f\u0bae\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba8\u0bc0\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd\" \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb3\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd\u0baa\u0b9f\u0bbf \u0ba8\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf, \"\u0bae\u0bc6\u0baf\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bca\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb4\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bc2\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbf\" \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0b9a\u0bc8\u0bb5 \u0ba8\u0bc6\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b85\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bc2\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b87\u0bb1\u0bc8\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bae\u0bae\u0bbe\u0b95\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bcb\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0ba4\u0bc1.","explanation_en":"In the Shaiva tradition, Sadashiva is the form of nada, of primal sound. Seeing God in the nada from which all sounds arise is one step. Subtler still is seeing the Shiva linga within one's own inner mind. The linga once seen in stone in the temple now shines within the heart. This is what Thirumoolar sang: 'The heart is the great temple, this body of flesh the shrine.'\n\nThe line 'smaller than the smallest atom, beyond the beyond' recalls the Katha Upanishad's words 'anor aniyan mahato mahiyan', smaller than the small, greater than the great. Avvaiyar shows this subtle Lord through a simple image: the sweetness inside ripe sugarcane. Looking at the cane you cannot see the sweetness; you know it only by tasting.\n\nWhat is experienced within must show in one's outer life. She says He made the devotee's signs and the sacred ash shine upon her and 'joined me to the gathering of true devotees'. In the Shaiva path, the company of devotees is honoured as equal to God Himself.","story_title_ta":"\u0b95\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd

Abhisheka Pandiyan ruled Madurai. One day Lord Sokkanathar Himself came through the streets of Madurai in the form of a siddha, a wandering wonder-worker. He made the old young and turned iron into gold. Crowds gathered around Him.\n\nHearing of it, the king invited Him to the palace. The siddha refused to come and stayed sitting in the temple. So the king came to the temple himself, held up a stalk of sugarcane and said, 'If you are truly a siddha, make this stone elephant eat this sugarcane.'\n\nThe siddha smiled and looked at the elephant carved of stone nearby. At once the stone elephant came alive, stretched out its trunk, took the sugarcane from the king's hand, and chewed and ate it. It even took the pearl necklace from the king's neck and swallowed it. When the king bowed in awe, the siddha blessed him and vanished, and the necklace was returned.\n\nEven a stone elephant tasted the sweetness of sugarcane. If the Lord gives life to our minds too, which are often as unfeeling as stone, they too will taste the sweetness hidden in 'sugarcane ripe at every joint'.","reflection_ta":"\u0b87\u0bb1\u0bc8\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b87\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0bae\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc8 \"\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc8\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1\" \u0b85\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0b95 \u0ba8\u0bc0\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b93\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0baa\u0bb5\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe: \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bb2\u0bcd, \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b95\u0bcb\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd, \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bb0\u0bcd?","reflection_en":"Have you ever felt you 'tasted' the sweetness of the divine, rather than only hearing about it: in a song, a temple, or a person?","image_prompt":"Inside the Madurai Meenakshi temple, a stone elephant sculpture coming to life and taking a stalk of sugarcane from a startled Pandya king with its trunk, a serene siddha with matted hair and sacred ash smiling beside it, devotees with vibhuti on their foreheads watching, Tanjore-painting inspired style with palm-leaf manuscript texture, ivory, ochre, copper and deep teal palette, no text or letters in the image."},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/4133","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/verse"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/4133\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4133"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"kural_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kural_section?post=4133"},{"taxonomy":"literary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literary_category?post=4133"},{"taxonomy":"author_poet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/author_poet?post=4133"},{"taxonomy":"thinai_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thinai_type?post=4133"},{"taxonomy":"work_title","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/work_title?post=4133"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
