Only with His Grace

There are many valiant metaphysical souls who tried greatly to explore on their own different ways to understand Being and settle down with the satisfaction that at long last they know Being . Such individuals set up religions cults schools of metaphysical thoughts, very practical methods like Yoga and so forth only to learn that there is no certainty in all these ways.  Being  always remains supremely elusive towards all human attempts to fathom the mystery that surrounds Being. The point is all such efforts are egoistic and indulging in such efforts is in fact strengthening the Ego and which will always cast a screen across BEING so that He can never be understood and the soul shine forth in the Glory of His presence. But Manikkar, a mystic, has achieved this and asks rhetorically who can explain this remarkable metaphysical feat. Of course he already indicates the reasons for his success. He has allowed himself to be possessed by Being  and in that possession he willingly became his devoted servant, the one at His feet and which is a metaphor for servitude. This really means that Manikkar slowly learned to kill his ego without which becoming the servant of  Being is impossible. With this inner resistance dissolved Being overpowers the soul disclosing Himself in various ways so that a genuine understanding is enjoyed by the soul. The kind of understanding of Being  is that over and above that He stands as the cosmic reality he also stands as Shiva, the metaphysically illuminating Supreme Radiance that dispels the Malam from the soul so that it becomes translucent clear and pure.
Tiruvasakam Tiruccatakam, MeyyuNartal 9:

Bavan empiraan pani maa matik kaNNi viNNoor perumaan
Civan empiraan enai aaNdu koNdaan
En ciRumai kaNdum
Avan empiraan enna naan adiyeen enna ipparicee
Puvan empiraan teriyum paricu aavatu iyambukavee

BEING my Lord is the Cosmic Reality and the Great Lord of all the celestial beings and who enjoys wearing the cool Crescent Moon as His head garland. My Lord of Shiva, the resplendent Power who overpowered me despite the fact that I am dirty with Malam infecting me. He is my Lord and I am His servant always serving Him. It is only because of this I understand this Being as the whole of the cosmos. Now can any one tell me how my servitude also has enabled me to understand Being thus?
