CREATION 17

Om Namah Sivaya

Microcosm

Tirumantiram by Rishi Tirumular

 

 

 

 

Verse 466: After Death, Senses End With Body; Jiva Ends in Nada

The five senses with their foolish ways

Are in this body born;

And there they subside;

So does Jiva

That permeates macrocosm

Surely subside in Nada.

Verse 467: The 35 Tattvas Introduced

As on to a leaf-like device

He mounted my life;

And there;

With balance like precision planted,

Subtle senses five;

And other Tattvas thirty;

And thus fashioned a body;

A steaming cauldron with openings nine.

Verse 468: Lord Creates

In union's rapture they kneaded the clay

For Him to fashion sorrow's tenement;

The kiln burnt, the pitcher emerged,

With channels nine and Tattvas eighteen.

Sivaya Namah
