Bharathi viewed Nature and the objects of Nature as the manifestation of the Supreme God. He wrote hymns in praise of the Sun and the Moon. The sunrise is seen to dispel darkness. The Sun, as Bharathi sees, is the sun of Wisdom, which drives out of sight, worries, meanness, pain and misery - the ghosts that thrive in the darkness of ignorance. Singing the glory of the Moon, he says the virtuous would make no distinction between the good and the bad in extending the warmth of their good will - as the moon benefits all with no distinction.
