Meaning:
Which conduces to beatitude, Dvaita or Advaita ? Dvaita, which declares that Jivaatma is different from the Paramaatma or Advaita which asserts that they are identical ? As the Eternal Witness of cosmos, please enlighten me, Lord. Throw light on this mystery so that I comprehend it beyond any doubt. Supreme and Omnipresent, you are declared to be equally manifest in all the worlds and to delight in sporting in the five elements: The Trinity, the celestials and the cream of devotees. O worshipped by Tyagaraaja ! Do enlighten me.
