To say that mOksham exists is an oxymoron, much similar to saying \u201cLet him be drenched by fire\u201d. Even if one were to say stubbornly that it exists, how is that mOksha? How to reach it? AzhwAr says . .<\/p>\n<p><strong>mannum kadum kadhirOn maNdalaththin nannduvuL<\/strong> \u2013 one has to traverse through the central region of sun whose rays are everlasting and are such extremely hot that one cannot approach them.
