FOOTNOTES [1] as the universal guru, Siva, as dakshiNAmUrti preserves silence (maunam), and communicates purely through gestures – it is believed that the rich repertoire of hasta mudras in Indian classical dance comes from this [2] I wonder if a word is missing – i.e., seyyAmal [3] taNDai is a hollow anklet, while sadangai (salangai) is one with bells on it [4] the five temples where the five sabhais where Siva (as naTarAja/ADavallAn/kUttan) is supposed to be dancing in are as follows: tillai/cidambaram: sivakAmasundari-naTarAjar temple The Golden Hall - pon ambalam/kanaka sabha
Madurai: mInAkshi-sundarESvarar temple The Silver Hall - veLLi ambalam/rajata sabha (where the lord dances with his left foot plated and right one raised - kAl mAri ADiya sabhESar)
vaTa-araNyESvaram/tiruvAlankADU: bhramara alakAmbikA-vaTAraNyESvarar temple The Gem-studded Hall - rattina ambalam/ratna sabha
tirunelveli: kAntimati-nellaiappar temple The Copper Hall - tamira ambalam/tAmra sabha
The Hall of Pictures - cittira ambalam/citra sabha kuTRAlam: kuzhalvAimozhi ammai-kuTRalanAthar temple
[5] the five elements (panca bhUtam) – Siva creates them, and becomes part of them as well – the five temples where Siva is worshipped in the form of these elements are as follows: Earth – prithvI sthalam: kAncIpuram – EkAmranAthar/EkAmbarESvarar*
Fire – agni sthalam: tiruvaNNAmalai – apitakucAmbA/uNNAmulai samEta aruNAcalanAthar/aNNAmalai
*Unique among the temples that there is no santum sanctorum (sannidhi) for pArvati in this temple - the lord is an single as the mango! ненджам уругида исаи пада пулиюдайяда ияль исаи куда инидудан адум (канакашабх апатийе…) Когда ваши блестящие замки (SenSadai) сверкают (минна), ваши преданные (aDiyAr) поют (pADa) музыку (isai), которая звучит повсюду (engum) и тает (urugiDa) в сердце (nenjam), ища убежища (tanjam tandem enRE) пять (панча) собраний / залов (сабхай) [4], и как одежда из кожи тигра (пули) (удай), господство (ада), и как литература (иал) и музыка (исай) объединяются (куда), (ох) Властелин золотого собрания), который танцует (ADum) с удовольствием (iniduDan) (твои похожие на цветы ноги - мое единственное убежище)!

Сноски [1] Будучи универсальным гуру, Шива, как дакшиНАмурти, сохраняет молчание (маунам) и общается исключительно жестами - считается, что великий репертуар хаста мудры происходит из индийского классического танца. [2] Интересно, пропущено ли слово - то есть, seyyAmal [3] taNDai - полый браслет, в то время как sadangai (салангай) - один с колокольчиками на нем. [4] Пять храмов - это пять сабхай, где Шива (как наТараджа / АДаваллан / куттан) выглядит следующим образом: тиллаи / чидамбарам: храм сивак Амасундари-наТарАджар Золотой зал - Пон Амбалам / Канака Сабха
Мадурай: храм Минакши-сундар Серебряный зал - велли амбалам / раджата сабха (где господин танцует с поднятой левой ногой и поднятой правой ногой - кал мари адийа сабхесар)
Тирунелвели: храм Антимати-Неллайаппар Медный зал - Тамира Амбалам / Тамра Сабха
Зал картин - Читтира Амбалам / Читра Сабха КУТРАЛАМ: кужальвАможи Аммай-куТраланАтхар
[5] Пять элементов (панча бхутам) - Шива создает их, а также становится их частью - пять храмов, где Шиве поклоняются, в форме следующего: Земля - притхви стхалам: Канчипурам - ЭкамранАтар / ЭкамбарЕСварар *
