To Get Wisdom

Tamil Transliteration

Thaerum padi sila aedhuvum kaattimun sellgadhikkukk
Koorum porul kundril kottum tharikurikkum samayam
Aarum thalaivi ivalaai iruppadhu arindhirundhum
Vaerum samayam undendru kondaadiya veenarukkae

Translation

Forewoman of sects six in all reigning supreme
Abhirami Herself, knowledge persisting
Yet chase the ignorant the other Pastures
Trusting their delusive worthiness;
Justification through reasoning
And imparting truths that guide
Destination enlightenment, draw equivalence
To wooden stick breaking the mountain!

Simple Meaning

Eventhough Abhirami is the chairperson of the six sects reigning, the ignorant chase and go behind the other sects believing them to be true; efforts justifying and reasoning out to those explaining the truth leading to enlightenment is like breaking the mountain with wooden stick; (this means that those ignorant people can not be disciplined.

Commentary:

Hinduism accommodates all types of men. It prescribes spiritual food for everybody, according to his/her qualification and growth. This is the beauty of this magnanimous religion. This is the glory of Hinduism. Hence there is no conflict among the various cults and creeds.
The Rig-Veda declares: 'Truth is one; sages call it various names- Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudha Vadanti.'
The Upanishads declare that all the paths lead to the same goal, just as cows of variegated colours yield the same white milk.
Lord Krishna says in the Gita: ‘Howsoever men approach Me, even so do I welcome them, for the path men take from every side is Mine.'
All diversities are organized and united in the body of Hinduism.

In the above slogan the following six sects are indicated;
Smartism, accept and worship of all major forms of God, (Ganesha, Siva, Sakti, Vishnu, Surya and Skanda) . Following a meditative, philosophical path, the denomination is generally considered to be liberal and non-sectarian.
As all the six forms require essentially a Mother, She becomes the natural choice of all irrespective of caste and creed.
also

As only realized souls can recognize this fact with understanding, explaining to ignorant is a waste exercise as Love and submission come not by compulsion but by natural instinct
