Its tip is wide, long and sharp, signifying incisive discrimination and Spiritual Knowledge, which must be broad, deep and penetrating. It destroys ignorance and restores the Jiva to its original abode of pristine glory. “If a man really has that knowledge, then he is indeed liberated though living in a body.” ---Sri Ramakrishna Tirumantiram by Rishi Tirumular (verse 136): Jiva Lies Enclosed in Siva The fierce rays of the sun beating upon the water, The dissolved salt does in crystal shapes emerge; That salt in the water dissolved becomes liquid again, So does Jiva in Siva get redissolved. Tirukural by Tiruvalluvar (verses 351): The muddled mentality that mistakes the unreal for the Real is the genesis of woeful births. Sivaya Namah What kind of emailer are you?
