139: Guru's Role in Soul's Illumination

It is but to see the Guru's Divine Form,
It is but to chant the Guru's Divine Name,
It is but to hear the Guru's Divine Word,
It is but to muse the Guru's Divine Being
--Thus it is the soul its illume receives.

~ Tirumular, Tirumantiram

140: Seek His Grace, the Senses Get Controlled

Surely then the senses five under your control come,
Surely then the senses five back to their native homes retreat,
Surely then the senses five change their course,
If, alone, you seek the sole felicity of our Lord's perfect Grace.

~ Tirumular, Tirumantiram
