The Ultimate Cause Poem by Sivavakkiyar
The Ultimate Cause
He is not Hari, He is not the Lord Siva.
He is the Ultimate Cause,
In the Beyond of Beyond,
Transcending Blackness, Redness, and Whiteness.
Immovable.
Try not to understand:
He is not big, He is not small.
He is Infinite Distance,
Immovable,
Transcending even
Supreme Quiescence.
I would consider incorporating some more accessible ideas. A. Some infinities are bigger than others. B. You would not want to be HIM. He is imprisioned by Love (by choice) . C. Love is exactly what you see around you (however paradoxical life and death may seem to you) and likely the soul that you can't see.
D. Think of creation as a dream that God chooses to dream. It might not be any more real than that. But you, your life and your dreams are all His choosing. What He has set in motion He is also aware of. No atom is on its own. E. You can count on this, God as you conceive him, is way too small!
Wow! This is greatest poem in human history about the Ultimate Cause of One of the gods. Sivavakkiyar was an early rebel against the Brahmanic order, he was resolutely opposed to the Caste system and was opposed to idol worship and temple ceremonies. And this at 10th AD! One of a kind! I have enjoyed and this poem brings respect in anybody's heart. For the relatives of Sivavakkiyar, I congratulare them for being chosen as CPOTD. Myriads of 10!
Congrats on being poet of the day! Indeed, certain things will always remain a mystery to mankind...No use trying to understand.
