thiruchchiRRambalam

Meaning:
When the medicine is sought, they are the medicine;
They are the
mantras; They are the propitious things that are
sought to be heard
and understood; They are the forms of the Reverend
Lord,
the Divine of the divines taken abode in
thirundhudhEvankuDi -
worshipped by great ascetics.

Notes:
1. The philosophy explains to us that the Formless
Supreme called
parashiva - incomprehensible, out of Its Grace took
the form of
sadhashiva (shivalingam) in front of brahma and
viShNu. Further It
took many forms in Its act of Grace to the pashus many
forms that
are easy to worship and show the love with. These much
adored forms
are called mAheshvara mUrthams. The purANas tell these
as 25 concise
and 64 expanded. (The details of these could be found
at
http://www.shaivism.org/maahesh.html ).
2. Sambandhar hails the glory of the Forms of Lord
shiva in this hymn.
