The fifth mantra of the first part of the Thirumandiram.
சிவனொடுஒக் கும்தெய்வம் தேடினும் இல்லை
அவனொடுஒப் பார் இங்கு யாவரும் இல்லை
புவனம் கடந்தன்று பொன்னொளி மின்னும்
தவனச் சடைமுடித் தாமரை யானே. 5.
5: Siva Is Nonpareil
Search where ye will, there's no God like Siva,
None here below to equal Him in glory;
Lotus like, He, of gleaming matted locks,
Golden in splendour, beyond the worlds, apart.
Com - Search where ye will, there's no God like Siva Even after searching throughout this vast external (manifest) universe, one will not be able to find another God to equal Siva. None here below to equal Him in glory And searching thoroughly throughout this (equally vast) internal universe (the body), one will realise that none can match Siva in His glory. Golden in splendour, beyond the worlds, apart When in His transcendental state (beyond all worlds), He stands apart, golden in splendour, shining like pure gold, with tawny matted locks. Lotus like, He, of gleaming matted locks He resides in the upward Sahasrara lotus (top of the head) tinged with the colour red.
*Here, the sage makes clear the location of the supreme Siva, who is unequalled, as the upward pointing Sahasrara, the chakra of thousand petals.

Just a thought
is'nt the secret meaning of the verse "beyond the world . apart" , mean beyond the 7 chakras , above the sahasrara at the top of the head ; the place of Shiva Shiva which is to be visualised as of a golden light
Shiva
