Round 4 of 9 · திருமுறை முழுவதும்
The full Tirumurai
The rest of the twelve Tirumurais: the other Tevaram volumes, the Tiruvisaippa, the Tirumantiram and the Prabandha Malai, and the saints who came after.
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:
The fourth circuit is complete: you have walked through the whole Tirumurai.
Next, the songs turn into teaching: the doctrine, step by step, and the first of the Sastras.
The circuit is not yet complete
The lotus of this round blooms when all its lamps are lit. Still to light:
Look back on this roundWhat it holds, its lamps and gems, and its inner path
The rest of the twelve Tirumurais: the other Tevaram volumes, the Tiruvisaippa, the Tirumantiram and the Prabandha Malai.
On the second round you opened one volume of each singer. Here are the rest: the further Tevaram volumes of Sambandar and Appar, the Tiruvisaippa and Tiruppallandu of the ninth Tirumurai, Tirumular's Tirumantiram, and the varied songs of the eleventh. The round ends with the saints who came after the canon was closed and still sang the same Siva.
The Tirumantiram is the bridge to what lies higher on the hill: a song, but already a philosophy. Read it slowly.
The path climbs · Round 5
The doctrine
The whole philosophy, step by step; where the hymns and the Sastras meet; and the first two Sastras to read.
