*TIRUCHANDAVIRUTTAM TANIYANS* BY TIRUKACHCHI NAMBIGAL These are two laudatory verses about the divine kshetram and the  glory of tirumazhisai AzhvAr. தருச்சந்த பொà®´ில்தழுவு தாரணியின் துயர்தீà®°  திà®°ுச்சந்த விà®°ுத்தம்செய் திà®°ுமழிசை பரன்வருà®®ூà®°் |  கருச்சந்துà®®் காரகிலுà®®் கமழ் கோà®™்குà®®் மணநாà®°ுà®®்  திà®°ுச்சந்தத் துடன் மருவு திà®°ுமழிசை வளம்பதியே ||(1) taruchchanda pozhiltazhuvu tAraNiyin tuyarteera  tiruchchanda viruttamchey tirumazhisai paranvarumoor |  karuchchandum kAragilum kamazh kONgum maNanArum  tiruchchandattuDan maruvu tirumazhisai vaLampadiyE || One || These four lines can be explained in the form of a query and an answer.

NACHCHIYAR TIRUMOZHI - 2

 NACHCHIYAR TIRUMOZHI 2* PASURAMS 514 – 523 NAmam Ayiram.... Realising the intense intention of the Aychiyar girls to unite with Him, KaNNan is startled and confused at the thought that, “why should the Ayar girls be worried to get united with me, when it is me, who have to be really worried about the union with them? For the same reason, instead of approaching me, why do they seek the help of a different deity?”  So kaNNan decides to appear before AndAl, to help her in the similar way He helped the gopikAs of gokulam by stopping their offerings to Lord Indra and diverting it to Govardhana mountain.  Here AndAl tries to ignore Him and even picks up a tiff with him arguing and fighting, not to spoil and destroy the small sand castles that they have made for their deity kAmadevan. “engal siRRil vandu sidaiyELE” 514 * nAmam Ayiram Eththa ninRa *  nArAyaNA! naranE! * unnai mAmi than maganAgap petRAl *  emakku vAdhai thavirumE **  kAmanpOtharu kAlam enRu * ...

 PERIYAZHVAR TIRUMOZHI - 3.6 PASURAMS 275 – 285 The glory of kaNNan playing the flute. 275: naavalam periya theevinil vaazhum* naNGgaimeer_kaaL! idhu Or aRpudham kELeer* thoovalam puriyudaiya thirumaal* thooyavaayil kuzhalOsai vazhiyE* kOvalar siRumiyar iLaNGgoNGgai- kudhuhalippa* udaluLavizhndhu* eNGgum- kaavalum kadandhu kayiRumaalaiyaaki* vandhu kavizhndhu n^inRanarE.* (2) (1) 275. Oh beautiful girls who live in the island of jambudweepa (nAvalan teevu)! Come and listen to this wonder!! The consort of MahAlakshmi, holding the pure, right coiled conch (valampuri), is now playing the flute keeping it on His purest lips. The girls of AyarpAdi lost themselves listening to the mesmerising tunes . As their emotions rose high, they started going towards the music leaving their boundaries and they all joined together like flowers of a string to listen to the music. Seeing kaNNan playing the flute they put their heads down in shame. (1) 276: idavaNarai idaththOLodu saayththu* iruhai kood...

 NACHIYAR THIRUMOZHI - 1 PASURAM : 504 – 513 1.THAIORU THINGALUM KANNANAI PERA KAAMANAI THOZHUDAL We have seen earlier that Andal initiated and conducted the PAvai nOnbu to get Kannan as her husband by singing the 30 ThiruppAvai pAsurams. Yet she did not get the anubhavam of uniting with HIM. After a lot of thinking she decides to pray to Manmathan or kAman, as it is believed that his flower arrows have the power of uniting lovers. Hence she prays to him to get her united with her EmperumAn. 504.thai oru thingaLum tharai viLakkith thaN maNdalamittu mAsi munnAL

NACHIYAR THIRUMOZHI – 11

NACHIYAR THIRUMOZHI – 11 PASURAMS (607 – 616) TAM UGAKKUM  Even after her desperate calls through various means that she came across, Andal was in deep despair as all her efforts were becoming futile. The womenfolk of the entire village including her friends, neighbours and elders had gathered around to find out the cause of her distress. While she briefed them about the adverse state that her “EmperumAn” has put her into, still she does not loose her hope. She affirms that her Lord who had gone to the rescue of Rukmani, a similar person like her, will definitely come to liberate her from her misery.  607 * thAm ugakkum tham kaiyil * sangkamE pOlAvO? * yAm ugakkum engkaiyil * sangkamum EndhizhaiyIr! **  thI mugaththu nAgaNai mEl * sErum thiruvarangkar *  A! mugaththai nOkkArAl * ammanE! ammanE!

KANNINUN SIRUTAMBU

KANNINUN SIRUTAMBU PASURAMS 937 - 947 Madhurakavi azhvAr in these 11 verses talks in detail about his reverence to his AchArya. It is generally said that, one should not pronounce the mantram taught openly to others, but talk and propagate the glory of the guru or AchArya who taught us the mantrAs. Madhurakavi AzhvAr having found his guru in Nammazhwar propounded about his greatness and the pleasure attained thereafter. 937.kaNNi nuN chiRuththAmbinAl  kattuNNap

This wondrous lord (perumAyan), kaNNan, made himself accessible to be tied with a thin knotted, not so long a rope (kaNNi nuN chiRuththAmbinAl).  My tongue and taste buds becomes sweet and nectarine, the moment I refer and utter the name of my AchAryan ,virtuous in all ways, who manifested himself moving closer to me from my father (enappan - referring to kaNNan), in this  beautiful place of tirukkuru...

Oh KesavA! Arise from your reclining state and speak. Did Your divine feet feel the strain and throb as you walked through the forest? (in RAmAvatAr) Did you become weary and tired as you lifted the mother earth when she was trembling with fear taking the form of the wild boar? (VarAham in varAhAvatar) What is the reason for you to lie down on the banks of the river kauveri which flows between the huge mountains and forest in Tirukkudanthai? Instantaneously when the Lord arose to reply, AzhvAr was overwhelmed by His act and started praising Him (vAzhi). #Even today we can see the Lord in a slightly raised position from His lying state in the Tirukkudanthai temple. This state is referred as UtthAna sayanam. TIR...
