DEATH IN THE FORM OF
HUMAN BEING
KuTRam is 'yaman'. The one whcih makes KURu -split - the soul and the
body is termed as kUTRAm.
The legend goes that rAVaNan obtained the
power of not being overpowered by dhevathAs or higher
beings.
He was not worried about mortal human
beings. 'They are after all small worms, innocous' -were his
perception.
This indifferent attitude and measly
thinking about them resulted in a callous and compacent attitude towards
them.
EmperumAn could have erased him by
sankalpam in one moment. Notwithstanding His prowess, The Lord Almighty wanted
to mainitain the boons
bequeathed to ravaNa by others.
So the Alimighty desended to the earth in
the form of a human being
and as none other than Chakravarthith Thirumangan.
Rest is known to
all.
The point here is, ravanan reached his end
from the most unexpected and the most underestimated
quarters.
This is what Tirumangai AzvAr points out
as
