Round 2 · behind the hill
You have walked ahead of your lamps
You are welcome here, and may read on. These lamps on the rounds below are not yet lit; this round will open more fully once they are:
Behind the hill
The inner path
This part of the journey is yours alone. Nothing here is checked or recorded. Take as long as you need.
Sit in silence
Sit in silence for three minutes. Let Manikkavasagar's praise settle in the heart, especially the words about the One who does not leave it even for the blink of an eye.
Rendering: May Namasivaya live; may the Master's feet live. May the feet of Him who never leaves my heart even for the blink of an eye live. May the feet of the jewel-like Guru who ruled me at Kokazhi live. May the feet of Him who stands as the Agama and draws near live. May the feet of the Lord, the One and the many, live.
Read these lines silently, or chant them gently: Tirumurai 8: Tiruvasagam and Tirukkovaiyar.
Sit with this
What would I like to say to Siva in my own words today?
