Ambrosia, the precious yield of love! Oh ! Lord Civa-Perumaan You have bestowed on this worm-infested outcaste perfect Civan-hood " (37:3). The saint in blissful exuberance sings, “If the owner of the bull, my Spouse Who has me as His own enters me, we too shall not pass onwards to go to Him along with all other devotees. We shall no longer gain elsewhere the transcendent Ambrosia which monopolises my love. (49:2) “The experience of Civan-hood by glorious devotees will no longer be obvious. There will no longer be our reaching the transcendent Flame which filling and pervading everywhere exudes ambrosia (49:8). Finally the saint asks with wonder and astonishment. “Who else could gain such a privilege which my Father in His Grace vouchsafed me by teaching the path of devotion to me who was laboriously striving in the company of cussed men who do not know the path of salvation, and ridding my mind of the lust that my old Karma might cease and flee and transforming me into Civan Himself!” (51:1). This verse seems to be a summary of the formation and development and transformation of his body into a body of Bliss for God Civan to abide in. This means that the saint has merged with God to be in eternal Bliss. God is a body of Gnosis and Bliss if at all He has a body For merging with God, that is, with Supreme Bliss, the human body must change or transform lest it perish. It should not be destroyed nor should it die. As the Saint has emphasised in scores of verses, God condescended and chose to abide in him and so He transformed his corporal body into a celestial body and offered him Civan-hood.i.e., he let him be. To enjoy God or Bliss means living in or with God or receiving or obtaining God and to remain locked in embrace with God for ever in eternal Supreme Bliss.
