Oh my heart,it is only the awareness of'nada' born at the foremost center of conciousness is emancipation.(Yoga says that mooladhara chakram is the source of nadam). The recognition of the blossoming of seven swaras is emancipation.
What pleasure do you get in beating a drum without the basic knowledge of laya(rhythm) Oh my heart,singing the praise of the lord without pure thoughts is only a swine's job.
It is only after several births wisdom dawns on a human being which will pave the way for salvation.Oh my heart, only those with true devotion, singing mellifluously with the knowledge of ragam attain salvation. Siva the Lord of Himalayas revealed 'swararnavam' (a treatise on the mysteries of music) to his consort Parvati.The jubiliant Tyagaraja posseses the knowledge of Swararnavam. Oh my heart, have faith in it and know.
