Seek Him through Love - mantra 31

Sri gurubhyo namaha.
The thirty first mantra of the first part of the Thirumandiram speaks about the love and devotion that are sure methods to reach Shiva who is in the nature of nada.

மண்ணகத் தான்ஒக்கும் வானகத் தான்ஒக்கும்

விண்ணகத் தான்ஒக்கும் வேதகத் தான்ஒக்கும்

பண்ணகத்து இன்னிசை பாடலுற் றானுக்கே

கண்ணகத் தேநின்று காதலித் தேனே. 31.

31: Seek Him In Love

Of the Earth is He, of the sky is He! Well He be!

Of the Heaven is He, of truest Gold is He! Well He be!

Of sweetest song's inmost rapture is He!

Him my love besought, from heart's central core.

Com - Of the Earth is He The Lord manifests Himself in human form to grace the beings of this earth (Bhuloka) of the sky is He He manifests Himself as the Light shining in the Akaashaa mandala to grace the beings of the skies (Bhuvarloka) Of the Heaven is He He manifests Himself in His shining Godly form to grace the beings of the heavens (Suvarloka) of truest Gold is He He manifests Himself as a Siddha (fully accomplished being) to those that seek Siddhi’s (miraculous powers). Of sweetest song's inmost rapture is He In the contented mind which is in rapture, He manifests the Nada (sonic vibration, referred to here as the sweetest song). Him my love besought, from heart's central core To Him, I stand forever close, loving Him from the very core of my being, as if He were my very eyes (by the mind being in inseparable union with Siva – like the eyelid and the eye).

* The supreme Siva who is of the nature of Nada should always be kept very dear to the heart and be approached with love and devotion. The above mantra mentions the three worlds (bhu, buvah, suvah) that are manifest for the different kinds of beings and that Shiva is the one light that shines constant in all the worlds.
