 PERIYAZHVAR TIRUMOZHI 4.7 PASURAMS 391- 401 "tangaiyai mookkum'... *"em puruTTottaman irukkai tirukanDankaDinagare"* The glory of PurushOttaman perumAl (neela mEghaperumAl) in dEva prayAg, the divya desam called tirukanDankaDinagaram. The deity is called Raghunathji in dEva prayAg.  391:## thaNGgaiyai mookkum thamaiyanai thalaiyum thadindha* em dhaasaradhi pOy* eNGgum thanpuhazhaavirundhu arasaaNda* em purushOththaman irukkai* gaNGgai gaNGgai enRa vaasahaththaalE* kadu vinai kaLaindhidukiRkum* gaNGgaiyin karaimEl kaithozha n^inRa* kaNdam ennum kadin^aharE. (2) 1. 391. The well renowned DAsharati, son of king dasaratha, who severed the nose of the sister (soorpaNaka) and the head of the brother (rAvaNa) ruled, with his praise spread all over the land. The very same lord resides in this holy place, worthy of worship called tiru-kanDam-kaDinagaram as PurushOttaman perumAl. It is situated on the banks of the holy river Ganges which washes away the sins of those who just

(2)(1) 381. Oh Sthrees!!, who name your children after few chethanAs and achethanAa , Desirous of getting money, Jari bordered silk saree,  and a tuft of paddy, !! Rejoice naming your children after KESHAVAN'S . The mother of children whose names are after SarvEshwaran NARAYANAN, will nerver ever enter hell.

PERIYAZHWAR TIRUMOZHI - 4.5

 PERIYAZHWAR TIRUMOZHI - 4.5 PASURAMS 371 - 380 4.5 - AASAIVAI Azhwar's advise.  Here Azhwar advises to involve in nAma sankeertanam and hence  name our children after HIS divine name so that we utter his nAmam automatically. 371:## aasaivaay senRa sindhaiyaraahi* annai aththan enpuththirar boomi* vaasavaar kuzhalaaL enRu mayaNGgi* maaLum ellaik kaNvaay thiRavaadhE* kEsavaa! purushOththamaa! enRum* kEzhalaakiyakEdilee! enRum* pEsuvaaravar eydhum perumai* pEsuvaan puhil n^am paramanRE. (2) 1. 371. Even as the soul is leaving the body, do not let your mind  waver  and lament - “my mother, father, children, land and my wives with fragrant hair”, instead cry out KESAVA, PURUSHOTHAMA, THE BLEMISHLESS VARAHA MOORTHY!!. No words can explain the bliss that one gets by chanting these names.

 PERIYAZHWAR TIRUMOZHI 4.4 PASURAMS 360– 370 nAvakAriyam sOll ilAdavar - 4.4 Lauding those who revere and celebrate Thirukkotiyur [ near kAraikudI] and those not, otherwise.   TirumAmagal sametha sowmyanArAyaNa perumAl Thirukkotiyur 360:## naava kaariyam sollilaadhavar* naaLthoRum virundhOmbuvaar* dhEva kaariyam seydhu* vEdham payinRu vaazh thirukkOttiyoor* moovar kaariyamum thiruththum* mudhalvanai sindhiyaadha* ap- paava kaarikaLaip padaiththavan* eNGNGanam padaiththaan kolO! (2) 1. 360. The people of Tirukottiyur hardly speak that which is forbidden. Performing their daily Pooja they practice chanting of vEdA and are very hospitable as well. This lord TirumAl of Thirukkotiyur is the unique one who drove away the hardships of brahma, Rudra and Indra. I really wonder how, those who don’t think of Him are even created!
