PO erT1:3 Title: Thiru-Andappahuthi (The sacred section of the universe) sub-title: Civanathu Thula Sukkumaththai Viyanthathu (Adoring the palpable and subtle nature of Civan) Analysis The title of the poem occurs in the first line itself as “The part of the universe.” This poem deals with the nature and development of the universe with the immanent presence of the God-head mingled with autobiographical notes in spontaneous outpournings. Lines 1-12 are very intricate and emphasize that the supreme in His greatness embraces all and pervades the minutest things in the universe and that He is the unique Being whose wonderful and admirable sublimity is not to be fully comprehended by any one, man or god. His greatness, source, glory and end conjoined with his eternity, His extent. His abiding essence, His subtle and palpable manifestations have been narrated (6-10) in sweet choice words adoring that He is the great One and He is the beauteous One, In lines 13 to 15 he sings that Civan the ancient One creates the creators of the universe, preserves those who preserve the creatures and withdraws into Himself those that have been preserved. The globular concourses of this section of the universe and the immeasurable nature of such spheres have been narrated even in the seventh century by divine power. Lines 16 to 28 speak about His immanent supremacy over all the five elements. 146
