The twenty seventh mantra of the Thirumandiram.
சந்தி எனத்தக்க தாமரை வாண்முகத்து
அந்தமில் ஈசன் அருள்நமக் கேயென்று
நந்தியை நாளும் வணங்கப் படும்அவர்
புந்தியி னுள்ளே புகுந்துநின் றானே. 27
27: He Enters Into You
The Infinite of Lotus-Face, rivalling twilight ineffable,
May ours be His Grace Divine!
And they who thus Nandi daily beseech,
Into their Heart, creeping, He comes! He comes!
Com - The Infinite of Lotus-Face, rivalling twilight ineffable He is the one with the indescribable face that is radiant with pure light, who is below the lotus of union (physical union, namely Swadhisthana chakra) May ours be His Grace Divine He should be approached by the pure, who affirm and seek, His boundless and unending (infinite) Grace, by becoming fit recipients for it. And they who thus Nandi daily beseech, And to those who constantly meditate on Him thus, Into their Heart, creeping, He comes! He comes! He enters their mind and attaches Himself there firmly.
* The Tamil word ‘sandhi’ that is used in the original mantra means both twilight and union (the meaning intended to be conveyed here is that of physical union, in reference to the chakra connected to it, namely the Swadishtana or the sacral chakra which is associated with physical union). Thus it is clear that Siva saturates the mind of those who meditate on His form as Light that is revealed below the Swadhisthana lotus.
