Tamil poems by Visvanathan

பெரியவா என்னும் மஹா சமுத்ரத்திற்கு, இந்த சிறியேனின் ஒரு துளி தீர்த்தம் அர்ப்பணம்

"ஸம ஆதி ஷட்க சம்பத் ப்ரதாயகாய நமோ நமஹ": (44)

"ஸமம் தமம் முதலிய ஆறு சம்பத்துக்களைக் கொடுப்பவருக்கு நமஸ்காரம்" (44)

"Obeisance to Him who bestows the six treasures namely "sama" , "dhama" etc" (44) 

'ஸம', 'தம', 'திதீக்ஷா'வோடு 'உபராதி', 'ஸ்ரத்தையும்'
'ஸமாதானம்' என்றறுநிலையும் அருளி எங்கள்
காமக் க்ரோத மத மாச்சர்யமழித்திடும்
வாமபாகம்வளர் இறைவியைப் போற்றி நிற்போம் (44)

had-sampat

Shad-sampat means the six virtues. This practice actually consists in developing six qualities or virtues. They are:

• Sama - Tranquility or control of mind. Calmness. This is the ability to keep the mind within and unaffected by the external world.
• Dama - Control of the senses. This consists in not letting the senses run out towards the sense objects. To the question, "Why do we need to control the senses when we can directly work on sama and control the mind itself - the mind being superior and more powerful than the senses?", the vedantins answer: If one were able to control the mind perfectly, dama would be unnecessary, otherwise it is a more powerful strategy to work on the mind apparatus from all sides.
• Uparati - Renunciation of activities which are not duties. Following the last two practices, the mind is so peaceful and calm most desires have been eradicated and there is no more reason to perform the activities in which most people indulge. Swami Sivananda beautifully expressed this practice in his famous motto: "Simple living, high thinking."
• Titiksha - Endurance, forbearance of the pairs of opposites. The mind must become strong enough to not waver in the face of the opposites: success and failure, hot and cold, pleasure and pain, sunshine and rain, etc.
• Shraddha - Faith. It is defined by Sri Sankaracharya as faith in one's guru, god, the self (atman) and the scriptures (shastras).
• Samadhana - Perfect concentration, one-pointedness of the mind. It takes a great degree of mastery to reach this level. Few reach it.
