192 TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL. 3. When the seer sees the brilliant Maker and Lord of the world, and himself as in the womb of God then he is wise, and shaking off good and evil, he reaches the Highest oneness, free from passions. 4. Life sure is He who flames through all creation. The wise man knowing Him reaches of naught else. He sports in God, in God finds his delight, yet he doth acts perform (truthfulness, penance, meditation &c.), best of God s universe, he 5. This God is to be reached by truth alone, and meditation, by knowledge, pure and constant discipline. He is in body s midst, made all of Light, translucent; whom practised men, sins washed away, behold. 6. That heavenly -bright, of thought-transcending nature, shines out both vast and rarer than the rare ; far farther than the far, here close at hand that too, just here in all that see nestling within the heajrt. the other 7. By eye He is not grasped, nor yet by speech, nor by By wisdom calm, in powers, nor by mere meditation, or even holy deeds. essence pure, then not till then does one in ecstacy, Him free from parts, behold. The second mantra is thus commented on by Srikanthacharya (vide Sicldhanta Dlpika Vol. 2, p. 74). The traditional interpretation of this passage is given as follows : " The Jiva, bound by the shackles of beginningless Karma, having entered into many a body made of Maya (Physical matter) each suited to the enjoying of a particular fruit is subjected to a lot of incurable misery and unable to ward it off on account of his impotence, he does ; not know what to do and grieves. He is thus immersed in the ocean of grief, caused by his great delusion. When, however, by the Lord s grace, he intuitively sees Him, who as the Impeller dwells within Himself, who is gracious to all who is ever associated with Uma, (Love and Light), then he attains to the unsurpassed greatness of the Lord, free from all grief. Therefore though Siva, who .is independent and who has been free from samsara from time without beginning, is in contact with the body, he is not subject to its evils, as the Jiva is. Wherefore it is, Jiva and Paramesvara are said to be in the cave of the heart." St. Tirumular has the following stanza :
TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL. 193 There is a fruit maturing from flowers of vanity. One bird partakes of it and another does not. If aimed with an arrow and driven away, ^ Sure one can reach the golden seat of Siva. St. Maniekavachakar calls the tree exactly in the Allowing beautiful passage Qurfltutrm it icitDJii Gsu.iup^JE niij QasrrffS Q -strewn Meanwhile, the heavenly mighty stream Rises and rushes, crowned with bubbles of delight, Eddies around, dashes against the bank of our embodiment, And twofold deeds of ours grooving fnm age to age, Those mighty trees^ roots up and bears away.
