A Tamil classic on the great Saiva saints of South India (Nayanmars), it is the tale of the sixty-three servants of Lord Siva. The trials they cheerfully undergo are breathtaking and to read their stories is to feel the touch of blessedness.
When we can attach the mind to -- or detach it from -- the sense at our will, we shall really possess character. Then alone we shall have taken a long step towards freedom; before that, we are mere machines.
-Swami Vivekananda
