Sri:
 
Dear RasikAs of Kamba RaamAyaNam:
 
Today , we will commence the series on
the anubhavam of SatakOpar AndhAti by Dharmika Ratna Pradheepa Sri U.Ve. N.R. Krishnaswamy IyengAr (1886-1966 C.E.).
 
SatakOpar AndhAti avatAram
 
The great Tamil poet Kambar was a contemproary of Swamy Naatha Muni , who was serving Lord Ranganatha at Srirangam after having been blessed by 
Swamy NammAzhwAr with the upadEsam of NaalAyira dhivya Prabhandham .
 
The poet Kambar was from the dhivya dEsam of TerazhundhUr and had completed the illustrious Vaibhavam of Lord Raamachandra . He planned to go to Srirangam for the inauguration of his kaavyam . His inspiration for the Tamil Kaavyam was the Sanskrit Moolam of Sriamth RaamaayaNam by Adhi Kavi Vaalmeeki . 
 
Kambar arrived at Srirangam.He went to Sri RanganAyaki ThAyAr sannidhi for the maiden presentation  (arangERRam) of his kaavyam .During the arangERRam,
Kambar arrived at Hiranya SamhAra section and began to recite" disai tiRanthu aNDam keeRi sirittathu senkatccheeyam " . At that juncture , the svathai ( made of brick and mortar) 
statue of SrI Narasimhan situated opposite Swamy Naatha Muni came alive and moved His head in approval .Swamy Naatha Muni understood now the divine nature of Kambar's poetry and sent Kambar to recieve Teerta , Parivatta-SaThAri maryAdhais ( honors) at Lord RanganAthan's sannidhi .At His sanctum,
Lord asked thru His archakar whether Kambar had sung about " Namm SaThakOpan" in his composition . Kambar understood now that Periya PerumaaL was suggesting that he come back for honors after creating a poem about Swamy NammAzhwAr, who is the dear  Paadhukai of the Lord . Kambar returned to his quarters and created during that night 100 verses about the Vaibhavam of Swamy NammAzhwAr in the AndhAti format of ThiruvAimozhi .
 
Next morning Kambar returned to Lord Rananathar's sannidhi , recited SaThakOpar andhAti first and next his RaamAyaNam ,recieved the honors from the Lord.
 
The Narasimha Moorthy who endorsed the HiraNya SamhAra chapter was later consecrated and moved to a separate sannidhi and is worshipped even today as MettU azhagiya Singar at srirangam.
     
THERE ARE FOUR TANIYANS COMPOSED BY DIFFERENT POETS FOR SATAKOPAR ANDHAATI . We will study them before studying the paasurams of SatakOpar AndhAti .
