Yet the doubt in their hearts would not go. 'What is the Supreme? How is it known?' The words of the Vedas gave them no complete answer, so they went to Kailasa and asked Siva to teach them.\n\nThe Lord sat as a youth beneath a banyan tree, facing south. His right hand showed the chin mudra: the forefinger joined to the thumb, the other three fingers extended. Then he spoke not a single word. He closed his eyes and sat in silence.\n\nIn that silence the sages' doubts dissolved one by one. They understood the meaning of the mudra: the forefinger, the soul, leaves the three fingers of anava, karma and maya and joins the thumb, the Lord. The silence gave them a certainty words could not give. Adi Sankara sang of it: 'Old disciples, a young guru; the guru's silence is the teaching, and the disciples' doubts are gone.'\n\nIn Pandaaya Naanmarai Manikkavasagar sings that 'even the four ancient Vedas cannot come near him' and calls the Lord 'the flawless Gem beyond speech'. Once the one beyond the Vedas is known through the guru's grace, there is no doubt left.
