But in my ignorance I probed through my intelligence. Meaning, See everything through Love, says my teacher. Here is one example of Thayumanavar's presentation of the highest thoughts of philosophy in simple Tamil:ĪRuLāl evaiyum pār enRēn-attai aRiyāde chuTTi en aRivāle pārthēn iRuLāna poruL kaNDadallāl ennaiyum kaNDilan ennaDi tozhi. He is also known for his unceasing emphasis on the unity of all paths to God and of all religions, and, in particular, on the unity of the Shaiva siddhanta and Vedanta. The songs on the theme of the Atman craving for the union with the Supreme, are famous for their authenticity, simplicity and easily remembered language.

His songs are full of the divine bliss which he enjoyed and transmitted in abundance. When he became god-minded he quit his job and began roaming, preaching Saiva Siddhanta philosophy and Shiva worship. His name hails from the name of the deity of the Rockfort Temple in Tiruchirapalli. He was also a scholar in Sanskrit and was a minister to the King in Trichinopoly in South India. Thayumanavar was a respected scholar in Tamil. He went on to say that "it is easy to control an elephant, catch hold of the tiger's tail, grab the snake and dance, dictate the angels, transmigrate into another body, walk on water or sit on the sea but it is more difficult to control the mind and remain quiet". Thayumanavar's key teaching is to discipline the mind, control desires and meditate peacefully. His poems follow his own mystical experience, but they also outline the philosophy of Hinduism, and the Tirumandiram by Saint Tirumular in its highest form, one that is at once devotional and nondual, one that sees God as both immanent and transcendent. His first four songs were sung 250 years ago at the Congress of Religions in Tiruchirappalli. He wrote several Tamil hymns of which 1454 are available.
Thayumanavar articulated the Saiva Siddhanta philosophy.
Thayumanavar or Tayumanavar ( Tamil: தாயுமானவர் Tāyumānavar) (1705–1744) was a Tamil spiritual philosopher from Tamil Nadu, India.
