Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Bhattar was once discoursing on Thirumangai Azhvar's
Siriya Thirumadal. In the pasurams, there is a 
description of Sri Krishna's act of stealing butter
while Yasoda is gone and then being caught by her.

One of the lines goes "thArAr thadanthOLkaL uLLaLavum
kai neeti", describing Krishna as putting his hands 
up to his shoulders into the pot with butter.

Nanjeeyar asked Bhattar "How did Yasoda know that 
Krishna had put his hands up to his shoulders into 
the pot, when He would have cleaned his hands 
completely so that He would not be caught for 
stealing butter?"

Bhattar replied "Yasoda knew it because she saw the
turmeric from Sri Krishna's shoulders and body that 
rubbed off on the edges of the pot".
