Prayer of the Day

Prayer song in Tamil

 

மாநிலம் சேவடி யாகத் தூநீர் 
வளைநரல் பௌவம் உடுக்கை யாக 
விசும்புமெய் யாகத் திசைகை யாக 
படர்கதிர் மதியமொடு சுடர்கண் ணக 
இயன்ற எல்லாம் பயின்றகத் தடக்கிய 
வேத முதல்வன் என்ப 
தீதற விளங்கிய திகிரி யோனே     நற்றிணை கடவுள் வாழ்த்து

Meaning of the Prayer Song:


 Earth as the perfect foot,
the pure water ocean where the conches make the sound as the cloth,
sky as the body, directions as hands,
pervading rays (sun), moon and fire as eyes,
acting in everything that exists,
as well as containing them in the Self
- that Vedic Supreme, is the One with the disc
of flawless glory!

1. vaLai - conch; n-aral - sounding; pauvam - ocean;
udikkai - cloth; visumpu - sky; kathir - sun; sudar - fire;
thikiri - disc
