Sri Acharyal's kaupina panchakam is more forthright, the pinnacle of bliss born
out of renunciation
out of renunciation
Points to ponder!

It talks about the jivanmuktha who just wears a loin cloth - kaupinam only.
He is ever in bliss. If you desire I will post the entire poem.

I am giving an english translation of Kaupina panchakam
1. Roaming ever in the grove of vedanta
Ever pleased with his beggar's morsel
wandering onward, his heart free from sorrow,
Blest indeed is the wearer of the loin-cloth.
2. Sitting at the foot of a tree for shelter,
Eating from his hands his meagre portion,
spurning wealth like a patched-up garment,
Blest indeed is the wearer of the loin cloth
3. Satisfied fully by the Bliss within him,
curbing wholly the cravings of the senses
delighting day and night in the Bliss of Brahman,
Blest indeed is the wearer of the loin cloth
4, Witnessing the changes of mind and body,
Naught but the Self within him beholding,
Heedless of outer, of inner, of middle,
Blest indeed is the wearer of the loin cloth
5. Chanting Brahman , the word of redemption,
meditating only on 'I am Brahman '
Living on alms and wandering freely,
Blest indeed is the wearer of the loin cloth.

உடைக் கோவணம் உண்டு, உறங்கப் புறந்தின்னையுண்டு உணவிங்கு
அடைகாய் இலையுண்டு, அருந்தத் தண்ணீர் உண்டு அருந்துனைக்கே
விடையேறும் ஈசர் திருநாமமுண்டு இந்த மேதினியில்
வடகோடு உயர்ந்ததென்ன தெங்கோடு சாய்ந்தென்ன வான்பிறைக்கே
இது பட்டினத்தார் பாடல்.

Dear Mr. N. R. R,
You are welcomed and requested by me to post everything relevant to this thread. Surely all of us will be benefited by them.
I remember you are the editor of an "Anmeega ithazh."
So you have the knowledge about and the access to several useful info-the very existence of which ordinary people like me may not be aware of.
with warm regards,
Mrs V. R.

Found some real free time.
So here are two more poems.
# 153. When in a tight spot...!
One may want to try his luck
To stand apart from the ruck, :bolt:
Assume the spirit of a puck,
And perform stunts like a buck! :llama:
By thus trying to run amuck,
He invariably become a yuck, :yuck:
And has to, his long tail tuck
And learn to dive like a duck
Lest he becomes a tall truck
Stuck tight in the rainy muck. :tsk:

# 154. Time to pluck.
When It is right time to pluck
The fat hen continues to cluck. :horn:
Those who thoughtlessly struck
Are probably also moonstruck! :loco:
It is the hint for us to chuck
Them mercilessly like shuck! :heh:
And abandon them like a truck
Too well stuck in the muddy muck!

Lack of foresight brings down calamities! :scared:
Even when I was merely 22 years old and weighed
> 50 < 60 K.G and as far back as in 1970,
my father sat on a chair. I sat on the bundle of hay
placed in front of him, while the thirumanglyam was
being tied.
People need some common sense and imagination.
Even Sasthram says it is a crime to place on one's lap
a female child older than five years. :nono:
If a super-sized-daughter and her old and
infirm father want to enact a super suspense drama,
it is at their own will and pleasure. :drama:

On second thoughts many doubts arise...
1. How did the father 'search' for a groom and successfully located one at his ripe old age? :roll:
2. How did the groom agree to marry a huge old woman? :suspicious:
3. Was he larger and older than her??? :fear:
4. If so, what purpose will such a marriage serve?:faint:

But we must also keep in mind the physical properties of
the persons involved (mass, size, volume, density etc)
in addition to the age factor of the bride-which has
risen from a single digit number to (30+) now! :dizzy:

How to keep the wolves off our throats???
This was the question which made me write this
modified kural.
But thinking back, I find that it has become a
double edged knife.
It tells the non-wolves how to keep the wolves
away. It tells the wolves how to keep the real
wolves away!
