In plain words
The hands are God's own gifts. With the eyes you must see only good and sacred sights. With these ears we must hear only sacred sounds. With the tongue you must utter only sacred words.
O tongue, knower of tastes, lover of sweetness, I tell you what is true and good, the highest: recite the sweet syllables ‘Govinda, Dāmodara, Mādhava’.
So said Māṇikkavācakar. O limbs, enter into sacred deeds. See nothing bad. Speak no bad things. Hear nothing bad. Do no bad things. Think nothing bad.
See no evil, see what is good Do no evil, do what is good Talk no evil, talk what is good Hear no evil, hear what is good Think no evil, think what is good This is the way to God
These, precisely, are the sacred values of humanness. The body is indeed the first means to Dharma. God gave this body only for doing good deeds. Why are you misusing this body God has given you? Māṇikkavācakar said that very thing.
Whatever heart You gave me, O Lord, that same heart I offer back to You, O glorious One; what else could I bring for Your worship? I fold my hands to You: accept it.
So he said. ‘I cannot make any offering other than this. Even this heart is just what You gave. The work this heart does is what You Yourself have made. Everything You have given, I am offering to You alone,’ he said. Man today does not let these sacred feelings enter the human heart; with mean feelings, passing desires and words that are Asatya, he goes on living a passing life. So how did the great ones of those days go on teaching?
