4.Vayu-Wind at Tirukalahasti.
5.Akasha-Ether at Chidambaram

The Lord is visible to those who pass or 'Maya' and 'Maha-Maya' (Illusion and Super Illusion Our Lord Dances His eternal Dance. The form of the Shakti is all bliss (Ananda) The united delight in Uma's body. The form of Shakti arising in time or Sakala And uniting the twain in the Dance.

His body is Akash, the dark cloud therein is Muyalaga. The eight spheres are his eight arms. The three lights are his three eyes. Thus becoming he dances in our body as the congregation or an assembly or Sabha. This is his dance: Its deepest significance is felt when it is realized that it takes place within the heart and the self. That is the kingdom within, everywhere is God that everything is in the heart. We find another verse the dancing feet, the sound of the tinkling bells.

The songs that are sung and the varying steps. The form assumed by our dancing Gurupara. Find out these within yourself, then shall your fetters fall away. Again the dance of Shiva is identified with the famous 'panchakshara'
