asOdhai n^aNGgaay! un mahanai koovaay. (2) 1.


202. A Gopi’s complaint to YashOdA.

After swallowing the butter, he throws the pot and breaks it causing so much noise. We are unable to bear with his mischiefs. Just as a wound burns on pouring sour juice, his behavior hurts us. He is no match to his elder brother Balaram. Oh!Lovely YashOdA, please call your son and stop him from doing such mischiefs . (1) 


203: varuha varuha varuha iNGgE* vaamana n^ambee! varuha iNGgE*

203. YashOdA calls KrishnA.

        Come my dear child! VamanA ,come! You  are the best of the KAhustA dynasty![kAkutHa Nambi]  with dark curly hair locks and red lipped mouth. Oh! Lovely neighbours, He is my beloved and very difficult to find one such child like Him. She calls Krishna, Come ‘ AnjanavarnA! (body as dark as kohl],  I cannot tolerate others complain about you. So please have mercy and come to me. (2)


204: thiruvudai piLLai thaan theeyavaaRu* thEkkam onRumilan thEsudaiyan*

varuha venRu unmahan thannai koovaay* vaazha ottaan madhusoodhananE. 3.


204. Another complaint.

        YashodA! There is no end to your son’s pranks. In addition He thinks so proud about it. He enters our house, gobbles the butter and breaks our pots. How can he do such acts to his neighbours? MadhusUdanA ! does not allow us to live in peace. YashOdA! Please call your son. (3)


205: koNdal vaNNaa! iNGgE pOdharaayE* kOyil piLLaay! iNGgE pOdharaayE*

205. YashOdA calls for Krishna.

       Come! O Dark colourd one! [KondalvaNNA] ! God of Srirangam [KoyiRpiLLAy], Lord Sriman NArAyanA who reclines in TiruPPer surrounded by waters !  As Krishna comes running saying, ‘I have come only to eat’. YashOdA  embraces him, and carries him on her waist . She could not get angry. Where did He ever learn this trick ? (4)


206: paalai kaRandhu aduppERa vaiththu* pal vaLaiyaaL enmahaL iruppa*

aalai karumbin mozhi anaiya* asOdhai n^aNGgaay! unmahanai koovaay. 5.


206. Another gopi’s complaint

Oh! YashOdA, with speech as sweet as the sugarcane, my daughter with lots of bangle in her hand, milked the cow and kept it on the stove. I went  to borrow some fire from my neighbour and stood chatting with her for some time. In the mean time your son came, drank the milk, knocked the pot and ran away. Please call your son, The Dear Lord of SAlagirAmam. (5)


207: pOdhar kaNdaay iNGgE pOdhar kaNdaay* pOdharEn ennaadhE pOdhar kaNdaay*

EdhEnum solli asalahaththaar* EdhEnum pEsa n^aan kEtka maattEn*

kOdhugalamudai kutta nEyaa!* kunReduththaay! kudamaadu kooththaa!*

vEdhapporuLE! en vENGkatavaa!* viththahanE! iNGgE pOdharaayE. 6.


207. YashOdA calls KrishnA.

      O my delighted child! You lifted the mountain, (குன்று எடுத்தாய்!)you did balancing dance on the pot. (குடம் ஆடு கூத்தா!)You are the meaning of the vedAs. (வேதப் பொருளே!)My God of VenkatA hills! (வேங்கடவா!)Without refusing please Come to me now. I cannot tolerate neighbours complaining about you. It’s painful to hear them. (6)


208: sen^n^el arisi siRuparuppu* seydha akkaaram n^aRu n^ey paalaal*

unmahan thannai asOdhai n^aNGgaay!* koovi koLLaay ivaiyum silavE. 7.


208. Another gopi again.

Concluding the 12 consecutive TiruvOnam fasting I made sweets with rice, yellow lentils, jaggery, ghee and milk. KaNNan came and gobbled up everything and said he wanted more. I knew about His nature .YashOdA! Is this behavior to be proud about? Please Call your son. (7)


209: kEsavanE! iNGgE pOdharaayE* killEn ennaadhu iNGgE pOdharaayE*

nEsamilaadhaar ahaththirundhu* nee viLaiyaadaadhE pOdharaayE*

thaay sollu koLvadhu thanmam kaNdaay* dhaamOdharaa! iNGgE pOdharaayE. 8


209. YashOdA  to KrishnA.

        O,KesavA! Come here, without saying No! Do not play with strangers and unfriendly people. Keep away from the labourers those who criticise about you. Come here! Obeying your mother’s words is your duty. DAmOdarA! Come here. (8)


210: kannal ilattuvaththOdu seedai* kaar eLLin uNdai *

ennaham enRu n^aan vaiththup pOndhEn* ivan pukku avaRRai peRuththi pOndhaan*

pinnum ahampukku uRiyai n^Okki* piRaNGgoLi veNNeyum sOdhikkinRaan*

unmahan thannai yasOdhai n^aNGgaay!* koovi koLLaay ivaiyum silavE. 9


210. A gopi compaints.

      After making sweets like laddoos, seedai and yellu urundai, I kept it in a vessel and went out thinking who will enter my house to take away these sweets? Your son entered my house, ate everything , and even checked for butter in the hanging pots[Uri]! I am aware of many more of his pranks. YashOdA, please Call your son! (9)


211: sollil arasippadudhi n^aNGgaay!* suzhaludaiyan unpiLLai thaanE*

illam puhundhu enmahaLai koovi* kaiyil vaLaiyai kazhaRRi koNdu*

kollaiyil n^inRum koNarndhu viRRa* aNGgoruththikku avvaLai koduththu*

nallana n^aaval pazhaNGgaL koNdu* naanallEn enRu sirikkinRaanE. 10.


211. One more complaint.

        O lovely YashOdA! Your son is very clever! You get upset if we complain. He came home, called my daughter, removed her bangles, went away from the backyard, gave it to a berry seller in exchange for sweet berries (nAvalpazham). When I asked him about the bangle , he laughs and says he has never seen them! (10)


PHALA SRUTHI 

212: vaNdu kaLiththiraikkum pozhilsoozh* varu punal kaaviri thennaraNGgan*

eNthisaikkum viLakkaaki n^iRpaar* iNaiyadi en thalai mElanavE. (2) 11.


212. PattaRpirAn, VishnucHHitan! Composed these songs on the Lord of Srirangam ,  surrounded with groves of swarming bees, where the river Cauvery flows. Whoever sings these , will become a devotee of GOvindA. They will be like lights that brighten up all 8 directions . I bow to them and worship their feet. (11)

Divya Prabandham

Divya Prabandham also called Nalaayira Divya prabandham consists of nearly 4000 hymns.  These 4000 Tamil verses are composed by 12 Tamil poet-saints called Azhwars who were immersed in their devotion to Lord Vishnu. The 12 Azhwars sang these songs about various sacred shrines and the presiding Deity of the shrine, that came to be known as the Divya Desams. There are 108 Divya Desams. 105 in India, 1 in Nepal  and the last two believed to be beyond the Earthly realms. The 12 Azhwars Poigai azhwar Boothath azhwar Peyazhwar Thirumazhisai azhwar Nammazhwar Madhurakavi azhwar Kulasekara azhwar Peri azhwar  Andal  Thondaradipodi azhwar Thiruppan azhwar Thirumangai azhwar       The Nalaayira Divya Prabandham also known as “DRAVIDA VEDAM” or “TAMIL VEDAM” became lost after the period of the Azhwars.

NACHCHIYAR TIRUMOZHI 14

NACHCHIYAR TIRUMOZHI 14 PASURAMS 637 to 646 *paTTi mEyndOr* After all the hardships that AndAl faced in uniting with the Lord, that she explained starting from " thaiyoru thingkaLum “, finally she gets relieved by having a darshan of the Lord when He shows up, which she explains interestingly in this last decade, as a conversation between herself and her gopika friends. AndAl, in the first half of each pAsuram putsforth a question asking,  "have you seen (கண்டீரே) kaNNan?" describing about Him. The later half comes as an answer saying (விருந்தாவனத்தே கண்டோமே) " *virundAvanaTTE kaNDOmE"* by the gopis. The essence of 'paramabakthi ' required to attain Him and the resultant 'pErinbam' attained out of it are clearly explained here.   637 * patti mEyndhOr kArERu * baladhEvaRku Or kIzhk kanRAy *  ittIRittu viLaiyAdi * ingkE pOdhak kaNdIrE? ** ittamAna pasukkaLai * inidhu maRiththu nIrUtti * vittuk koNdu viLaiyAda * virundhAvanaththE kaNdOmE (2) (1) (6...

THIRUPPAVAI PASURAM 1 Andal assumes herself to be the cowherdess of  ‘AyarpAdi’, awakens her peers to follow a certain discipline in view of attaining everlasting happiness and service to the Lord. Eventually selecting the month of “MARGAZHI” and as a monthlong process she sang 30 pAsurams (one for each day) for the “PAVAI NONBU”, called “THIRUPPAVAI”. Each pAsuram ends with the special phrase “ELOr EmpAvAi”, meaning Oh, my dear friends which is the speciality of ThiruppAvai. 474.mArgazhit tingaL, madi niRainDa nannALAl *  nIrADap pOduvIr! pOduminO nErizhaiyIr! *  sIr malgum AyppADich selvach siRumeergAL! *  kUrvEl koDuntozhilan nandagOpan kumaran **  ErArnda kaNNi, yasOdai iLanjchingam *  kArmEnich sengaN kadir madiyam pOl mugattAn *  nArAyaNanE namakkE paRai taruvAn *  pArOr pugazhap paDindElOr empAvAy (1) 1.MARGAZHI THINGAL.

 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...

PERUMAL TIRUMOZHI - 9*

*PERUMAL TIRUMOZHI 9* *PASURAMS 730—740* *Van tALiNai* (thanayan vanam pugath dhasarathan pulambudhal) In this decade AzhvAr talks about the misfortune of king dasharathA. He thinks that, there can be none like DasarathA, who would have    suffered to this extent, the separation of rAma. DasarathA's grief and regret of sending rAma to the forest is vividly explained here. 730 * vanthALiniNai vaNangki vaLanagaram thozhudhEththa * mannanAvAn ninRAyai * ariyaNai mEl irundhAyai * nedungkAnam padarap pOgu enRAL ** em irAmAvO! * unaip payandha kaikEsi than soRkEttu * nanRAga nAnilaththai ALviththEn * nanmaganE! unnai nAnE (1) 730. Oh! My dear son rAma! Getting to know the excitement of the entire subjects of Ayodhya and the chieftains, who respect you, greet you and honour you by falling at your feet, on making you the next heir to the throne, I got overwhelmed in making all the arrangements for crowning you. Later listening to the words of kaikeyi, I had to dethrone you and send yo...

PERUMAL TIRUMOZHI - 7 PASURAMS 708 TO 718 Alai neeL karumbu According to various circumstances and the state of mind one is in, one can enjoy Lord in different kinds of relationship, like husband and wife, mother and child, teacher and student or as two friends. Here in this tirumozhi, the motherly instinct of AzhwAr becomes prominent. Not finding his child close to him, he personifies himself as Devaki and tries to reminiscence each and every stage of kaNNan's childhood. The time frame here is that, Devaki laments this when she sees KaNNan after He frees her on the death of Kamsa. THE CRADLE STAGE: [New born] 708 * AlainIL karumbannavan thAlO * ambuyath thadangkaNNinan thAlO * vElainIr niRaththannavan thAlO * vEzhap pOdhaga mannavan thAlO ** ElavArkuzhal en magan thAlO * enRenRu unnai en vAyidai niRaiya * thAloliththidum thiruvinai illAth * thAyaril kadaiyAyina thAyE(2) (1) 708 Oh my child!, who is like the well grown sugarcane ready to be sent to the factory for juice extraction,...

 NACHCHIYAR TIRUMOZHI 10 PASURAMS 597 – 605 kArkODal pookkAL.. Talking about monsoon and it’s traits, even in this decade AndAl talks of how certain flowers influence her mood taking advantage of her solitude. Wondering, how to sustain life ahead, she consoles herself that, being the daughter of periyAzhvAr will surely lead her to Him. PurushakAratvam is what she is trying to explain in this decade. PurushAkaram in simple language means, the help that is rendered or obtained to reach the eternal goal ( I.e nearness to God) 597 * kArkkOdal pUkkAL! * kArkkadal vaNNan en mEl *  ummaip pOrkkOlam seydhu * pOra viduththavan engkutRAn? **  ArkkO ini nAm * pUsal iduvadhu? *  aNi thuzhAyth thArkkOdum nenjcham thannaip * padaikka vallEn andhO!
