Meaning of Thevaram

  
He is One in strange spectacle with the beautiful 
palm holding fire ! Prefers bull as the vehicle ! 
Has a blackened throat ! Leads the life in  
cemetries ! Still He is Supreme, who knows His 
wealth ?! 
 
Notes

  
1. Isn't it this Lord Who gave kubera all the  
covetous wealth ? Isn't it this Lord Who gave  
Indra airAvatham to ride and the nectar to the 
divines but took nothing but poision from the 
ocean ? If it was not for this Lord - the  
auspicious - how would have the divines and the 
daemons survived the poison ? Isn't He the One Who 
stands alone in spite of eating poison when even  
the divines who ate the nectar die ? Isn't that  
Eternal Lord the most affluent ? For the ones who 
need to establish their well being all the external 
adornation is required. Why should the Peerless  
Supreme that is the source of all our prosperities 
need external show off, while It Itself is the  
Ultimate Auspiciousness ! 
2. cf. shivanenum Ochai - appar 
3. eeRu - bull; kaaDu - forst (here cemetry);  
peRRi - asset/prosperity
