5. Saddharshanam - Five loci of errors

 Verse 5. 

உடல்பஞ்ச கோச வுருவதானா லைந்து 

     முடலென்னுஞ் சொல்லி லொடுங்கு - முடலன்றி 

     யுண்டோ வுலக முடல்விட் டுலகத்தைக் 

     கண்டா ருளரோ கழறு 

   பதம் பிரித்தல் 

    உடல் பஞ்ச கோச உரு; அதானால் ஐந்தும்  

    உடல் என்னும்  சொல்லில் ஒடுங்கும்  - உடல் அன்றி 

    உண்டோ உலகம்? உடல் விட்டு உலகத்தைக் 

    கண்டார்  உளரோ? கழறு . 

5. Five loci of errors

Food is the source for this body

Food is the basis for us to embody

Breath is what makes us live

Breath can make one thrive 


Sound is not called a sound 

When ears are not around

Sense organs perceive sense objects

Entire world is evident to cerebral cortex


Taste buds go through intense detox

Then they begin tea tasting work

Sense organs need the support of mind 

They function with that help behind


Śadjama brings out all seven notes

World comes out from subjective anecdotes

The transactions begins with interactions

The divisions begins with relations


There is no world without the five senses

There is no action without the five organs

Let senses perform action at the prelature

The loci of modification is their nature


Five loci where errors are possible 

Guru unfolds to make them cognoscible

Swamini Svatmavidyanadaji Class 11

Just Be ( Summa Iru)

Just Be (Summa Iru)  As I sat in the weekly satsangs on Ramana Maharshi, Bhagavan’s question echoed within me: “When are you coming to Tiruvannamalai?” That question did not remain a question for long. It ripened itself. The long vigil of Maha Shivaratri, chanting the Ramana Tamil parayanam and the 26th chapter of the Ribhu Gita, deepened the saṅkalpa into something steady and irreversible. After a week-long Vedanta camp in Rishikesh, the journey unfolded almost on its own. Flights were booked. A car was arranged from Chennai. For the first time, plans were made not for the world or family, but for the Self. And in that sincerity, something remarkable happened: the universe did not resist. No one in the family objected. It was as if life itself stepped aside. Despite war and unrest disrupting travel across the world, when asked, “Are you still going?” the response arose effortlessly: “If it has to happen, it will.” In the bustle of Rishikesh, the mind wandered through sense objects...

A Tale of Two birds

  A   Tale of two birds Old Īśvara had a farm, And on this farm He had a tree, And on this tree there sat a bird, With a  coo coo  here, and a  coo coo  there, Here a  coo , there a  coo , Everywhere  coo coo ! This bird eats the berries, Some are bitter, some are sweet. Fluttering here, fluttering there, Restless in its endless search. Old Īśvara had a farm, And on this farm He had a tree, And on this tree there sat a jīva, With a  glub glub  here,  and a  glub glub  there , Here a  glub,  there a  glub   , Everywhere  glub glub   ! The jīva whines in sorrow, The jīva whines in fear. Forgetting its true nature,  It suffers birth after birth. Old Īśvara had a farm, And on this farm He had a tree, And on this tree the jīva met the Guru, And the jīva turned into a bhakta. She asks, “Give me this, give me that,” She prays in sorrow and distress. She makes her bargains and deals Slowly c...

Exit from Abhimanyu Syndrome

Exit from Abhimanyu Syndrome Should I sleep away from the drama of the world, Or awaken to the stillness in which it appears? Should I wake up from the dream of the waking state, where name and form parade as truth? Or accept them as they are? Should I stop attempting to rewrite the script of life? Or engage in the scenes of the play with a playful attitude? Should I stop projecting a personal movie, Or recognize that I am the light that makes all images possible? Should I reject the world as a mere phenomenon? Or release identification with body and mind? Should I rest in the wisdom of internal calmness ? Should I be that mystical Swan  meandering gracefully in the water  abiding in self right now? If not I, Who will see this? If not now, When will this seeing occur? Who am I is the question of Viveka What am I up to is the question of Vairagya When there is nowhere to go, and nothing to attain, I dwell in these questions, not seeking answers, for the questions themselves are...
