1.3 Adoration to Omnipresent God That Is The Presence of Holy Grace

Thayumanavar Hymns

Hymn 1 – Verse 3  (3/3)

That which is Nondual,
That Word which is the the unique Light, 
That which the scriptures proclaim aloud,

As the Wisdom of Wisdom
As the Bliss that fills
As the Primal One,

As the Form of the Real Self,
That which faiths contend about,
That which is sought for support,
That which is Permanent,
That which is Fullness,
That which is without support,
That which is our support,
That which is Peace,
That which is the state of Void,
That which is Eternal Pure,
That which is untouched by the materiality of the universe,

That which is unaffected by events,
That which is Changeless,
That which shines as impassive neutrality,
That which is Blemishless,
That which is Formless,
That which is in thought
Without thought cognizing it,
That which is Divine Light Effulgence,
That which is Uncreated,
That which flourishes in the Jnana void,

That God Supreme,
Let us in meekness worship.

1.2 Adoration to Omnipresent God That Is The Presence of Holy Grace

Thayumanavar Hymns

Hymn 1 – Verse 2   (2/3)

Countless the habitats lived,
Countless the names borne,
Countless the kith and kin possessed,
Countless the bodies by karma caused,
Countless the Karmas daily perfomed,
Countless the thoughts entertained,
Countless the name and fame acquired,
Countless the heaven and hell experienced,
Countless the Gods worshipped,
Countless the faiths followed –

And so, realizing through jnana and grace
Our God of Turiya form *[1]
The Divine Cloud that pours the rains of limitless rapture
Flowing through the dome of heaven
And through the love-filled eyes of fervent devotees,

Who chant the names countless
That scriptures countless recount,

The Treasure vast of silentness
That Wisdom Bliss of inexplicable state,
That Immensity

Let us in meekness worship.

*[1] – Turiya is the fourth state of pure silent consciousness, – beyond waking, dreaming and deep sleep.

1.1 Adoration to Omnipresent God That Is The Presence of Holy Grace

Thayumanavar Hymns

Hymn 1 – Verse 1  (1/3)

What is It?
What is That Which Is, Which is not just here or there but Is everywhere, As unrestricted shining effulgence, Filled with perfect bliss, Filled with grace and divine love, —
What is it, which willed To contain the countless universes In boundless space And there flourishes as Life of life, –
What is it, which stood Transcending thought and word, 
What is it, which remained As the ever contentious object Of countless faiths claiming, ”This, my God,” ”This, our God” —
What is it, which exists as Omnipresent, Omnipotent, Love-filled and Eternal –
What is it, which knows No limits of Night and day –
That indeed is what is agreeable to thought,
That indeed is what fills all space in Silence.
That indeed is what we in meekness worship.
