Prayer of the Day
Prayer from Thiruvarutpayan (திருவருட்பயன்)
அருளது நிலை
தரையை அறியாது தாமே திரிவோர்
புரையை உணரார் புவி 36
Song as Romanized text
aruLathu n-ilai
tharaiyai uNarAthu thAmE thirivOr
puraiyai uNarAr puvi. 36
Meaning of the Prayer Song:
People not even recognize that they walk on the land.
The same way people on this earth do not realize the Supreme (Grace).
Notes:
1. purai - supreme.
2. How often do we feel the land which is the basis for our
existence? While we are always supported by it, we live totally
in oblivion about it.
The same way, Grace of Lord Shiva is the one that makes every
life thrive. However, we keep thinking about how we are surviving and
hardly ever get to what beyond us is the force that made us live in the
world - providing body, instruments, dwelling and enjoyments.
