In Vedantic parlance, the human body is also called ‘Tunga-Bhadra’. ‘Tunga’ means very high, vast, great etc. ‘Bhadra’ means good, sacred, auspicious, effulgent etc. The implication of calling the human body as ‘Tungabhadra’ is that it is intended to undertake such noble activities as will bring about the welfare of the society. Therefore, to be worthy of this name, you should dedicate your body and mind to the loving service of all beings. In this context, you must remember the shining example of the great musician-Saint Thayaraja who proved himself worthy of his name which literally means-the ‘king of renunciation’. (ICS, pp. 127-128)
