Where is the focus of God ?


புருடோத்தம நம்பி திருவிசைப்பா
தலம்    கோயில்
பண்    பஞ்சமம்
ஒன்பதாம் திருமுறை

திருச்சிற்றம்பலம்

முத்தர் முது பகலே
    வந்தென்றன் இல் புகுந்து
பத்தர் பலியிடுக
    என்றெங்கும் பார்க்கின்றார்
சித்தர் கணம் பயிலும்
    தில்லைச் சிற்றம்பலவர்
கைத்தலங்கள் வீசி நின்று 
    ஆடுங்கால் நோக்காரே.

thirucciRRambalam

Meaning:
The Absolutely Free One, in the bright mid-day
came into my home and said, "Devotee, put alms !",
He was watching all the place around (at my home) !
The One in thillaic ciRRambalam, where the accomplished
clan of siddhas worship, when He dances swaying
apart the hands doesn't see !

Notes:
1. God comes to the heart of the devotees, demands
the devotion and monitors the activities of the devotee
guiding him/her. God is pleased with the sincere 
offering the devotee makes and blesses. 
   But if the God is pleased with the act of the devotee,
would that mean Its pleasure depends on the worship
of the devotees ? If so It cannot be eternally blissful
due to the dependency built. The truth is in Its own,
It is ever blissful and pleased which is independent
of anything else. It is for bringing up the devotee It
comes to our homes and asks for alms (and gets as if
pleased due to that).
2. il - home; pali - alms.
