THE TUESDAY
PHENOMENON
Some say that 'tuesday' is auspicious as
it is 'mangaLa vAram'. Howevers, some others do not prefer as it is ruled by
malefic mars-sevvAi.
For us, srevaishNavites, it is a day of
rejoicing as it it this day SvAmi Nam AzvAr desended into this mother
earth.
The magnum opus tiru-vaimozhi and the
relted vyakyanam-s followed by the juicy AchArya Hrdhayam can all be traced to
the source as this day tuesday.
Then, shall we promulgate
"For all purposes and
intents, hereinafter, tuesday shall be the day of rejoicing, a mark of
clebration and open for all auspicious events"
Yes.Would be the logical
answer.
Going a bit further into this, let us see
what AzvAr felt on his birth. He felt very bad that he had missed Sri KrshNA by
a week's time. This gave him a
lasting misery. This coslty siip between
the cup and the slip rendered him frustrated.
'pallilEa pattuth
theRithAR pOle' says Sri Nam-piLLai.
A week had elapsed since Sri KrhsNA
decided to ascend to thannudaich sOdhi. 'Oh! had i been here a few days back, I
would have had His divine vision'
rued Sri Nam-AzvAr -the krhsNA thrshNA thathvam-the manifestation of love for sri
KrshNA.
In this light, tuesday though very good
for us, for AzvAr , it rendered a lasting misery. a lifelong feeling of miss.
Should we then celebrate of AzvAr's
arrival or feel for Azvar's dis-appointment?
