 The theme impermanence as suggested by reality of death of the living creatures as well as the world is a central theme in practically all Indic religions. In Saivism this has assumed a central place where the worship of Siva as a Dancer in the cremation ground highlights this focus. Death is not at all a pleasant event and it requires some inner courage to face it and meditate upon it. This is what Sundarar does in this moving Patikam. We may recall that in Dravidian thinking at least from the days of Tolkaappiyam this phenomena of death and the kind of lamentations it evokes has been studied quite scientifically as part of PuRat TiNai - the social and political life. It may in fact go back to the tradition of Lamentations of the Sumerians well documented by such texts as the Lamentations Over the Destruction of Ur and so forth.

 O great emperors who pompously ride on an elephant and tour the cities with an retinue of kings surrounding you! When you are dead and your body becomes a mere corpse, in your journey after death there are no one to accompany you, and you have to go all alone. Keep this understanding deep in your heart and without ever wavering from it, live the remaining life with the understanding that only BEING remaons your company on the journey after death and to seek His grace, let us visit the temple in EtirkoLpaadi and pray to our Father for His kindness.

 The hedonistic way of life not only celebrates the physical forgetful of the metaphysical but also in that makes more active the POISON of Malam and which can be dislodged only by the metaphysical illuminations. The POISON exists in the form of Mummalam, the aaNavam Kanmam and Maayai and which are compared to the three castles in which live the Asuras brandishing swords and like the fiery snakes which pour out the killer poison. Thus the physical world has within it the concealed presence of these killer sanke Asuras and remaining bonded to the sensual is in fact remaining in the company of such forces and becoming victims to them and at which point the untimely death strikes one. While enjoying the materialistic ways of life of the senses, we also invite premature death where the laughing mouth ends up as something with shining white teeth on a skull. The hedonistic pleasures also feed the killer poison and quite unknown to the individual
-But why shouldn't we take it that this is how the world is, that there is death as an inevitability about which we can do nothing at all and resign ourselves to it enjoying the pleasures of life to the maximum while still alive and the opportunities are there ?

 Well Sundarar differs and suggests that there other options available to us.

 We have to analyze and understand the aesthetics and hence the dynamics of the heart, the feelings and emotions and which would show that in depths of it all lurks BEING-as-FATHER, the Natam who makes the Bindu, the Woman DANCE in myriad of ways whereby there come to be creative processes in nature. There is infinite fecundity in nature and hence the WOMAN who tirelessly reproduces but all fathered by the MAN, the Father.
 Only when the human soul grasps both aspects of BEING that it really gains a true understanding of BEING
 All these are part of Temple Worship and hence free and non-censuring Icon Thinking .

 Sexuality Blinds the Eyes and Closes the Mind
+<br>
 Sundarar, the one who married twice and walked around as the groom all along his life, is certainly well qualified to speak about sexuality that founds the basic family life. He notes here that as long as one remains bound by the sexual pleasures such a way life affords and which can be very satisfying in its won way, has the consequence of BLINDING the person towards the metaphysical and hence the visions of BEING and seeking Him with love and affection.

 BEING, the Most High shows Himself as the One who smears Himself with the Pearl-white Sacred Ash ( to signify that He burns all dirt) and at the same shows Himself as coral-red bodied with the hair flowing luxuriantly ( to signify that He furnishes with something novel and good). Because of this He and as He shows Himself in the temple of EtirkoLpaadi, becomes the One who is loved by all those who understand Him as thus and begin to worship Him as the Most High, above all the gods and so forth. I , the Nambiyuuran, the servant of all those in the sacred service to BEING and the dear son of Siva, the Long-hared , decided to sing all these metaphysical insights and I am sure all those who sing them with understanding will also begin to worship the FEET of such a BEING.
