Dear srevaishnavites,
I reprodcue below my posting on the special pasuram
vanamamalai padmanabhan


Excellent Sri Vasudevan swAmi. I have enjoyed this pAsuram whenever I think or 
recite this.
Shall i take the privilege of drawing a more or less similar pAsuram:

"aravam adal vEyam Ankurundham puLvAi
kuravai kudamulai maRkunRam- karivinRi
vittirundhu, mEAithosithu kEndu kOthAdi
vuNdu attedutha, sengan avan" mudhal thiruvandhAdhi 54

To be readjusted as:

aravam vittirundhu
adal vEyam iruthu
An mEithu
kurundham osithu
puLvAi kENdu
kuravai kOthu
kudam Adi
mulai vuNdu
mal attu
kunRam eduthu. 

aravam vittirindhu: - drove away the kAlian;
adal vEyam iruthu - vanquishing the elephant kuvalaiyApEtam
A(n) mEithu - Taking care of the cows;
kurundham osithu - destroying the demon in the form of kurundham;
puLvAi kENdu - bakAsura vadham;
kuravai kOthu - rAsak krEdai
kudam Adi - kudak kUthu
mulai vuNdu - bhUdhanai s mulai ( vuyir ) vuNdu
mal attu - killing the wrestlers
kunRam eduthu - picking up the goverdhana giri.

Great poetic sense indeed. The gramattical greatness has already been explained 
by sri. vasudevan swami.

I am able to realise the value of the words of swAmi maNavALa mAmunigaL 
'mARRuLla AzhwArgaLukku
munnEA vandhudhithu nAthamiyAl nAttai vuytha" vupadhEsa rathinamAlai.

Great indeed

Dear Srevaishnavites,

I reproduce below the write up on a special pasuram posted by sri MG.Vasudevan.
I am givning my posting in the next posting.
dhAsan
vAnamamalai padmanabhan





Dear sri vaishNava perunthagaiyeer,

Here is one of the grammatically excellent paasurams. First, the paasuram from 
moonraam thiruvanthaadhi and then how it has the grammatical excellence. 

peRRam piNai marutham pEi mulai maach chagadam
muRRak kaaththoodu pOi uNdu udhaiththu kaRRuk
kuNilai viLankanikkuk koNdu eRinthaan veRRip 
paNilam vaai vaiththu uganthaan paNdu. - paasuram no 64

You have to readjust the words to get the real meaning - like
peRRam muRRak kaaththu
piNai marutham oodu pOi
pEi mulai uNdu
maach chagadam udhaiththu

balance paasuram to be read as it progresses.

To give the meaning of above paasuram-

KrishNa as a child did
1. peRRam muRRak kaaththu - grazed the cows and calves in its entirety of the 
village - peRRam means pasukkaL - cows and calves, muRRa - in its entirety, 
kaaththu - protected - means took them to forests for grazing, grazed and 
brought them back home safely from the forests, without these being attacked by 
wild animals etc.
2. piNai marutham oodu pOi - the two gandharvaas because of their own actions 
received a curse to stand as marutha trees, stood jointly in the backyard of 
the house of krishNa for their saapa vimOchanm - release from curse - oodu pOi 
- krishNa crossed the trees to give the desired release of these two 
gandharvaas. 
3. pEi mulai uNdu - the poothana samhaaram episode - simply put across as - 
sucked the breasts of the demon poothana who came with the intention of killing 
child krishNa by giving poisoned breast milk.
4. maach chagadam udhaiththu - kicked the big cart - the sagada asuran episode 
- who came as the wheel of a big cart with the intention of killing child 
krishNa, while krishNa was in his cradle.
5. kaRRuk kuNilai viLankanikkuk koNdu eRinthaan - kaRRu - the calf, kuNil - a 
small staff, - the calf thrown like a small staff to beat a small fruit in the 
tree - children generally while going to graze cows and calves take two three 
staffs, similar way krishNa threw the asura like a staff, [who came as calf] to 
beat another asura who stood in the tree as the fruit, by that one action, both 
fell dead.
6. veRRip paNilam vaai vaiththu uganthaan paNdu - paNilam means sangu - the 
conch - paanchajanyam of krishNa - he blew the conch for success of the 
paaNdavaas at the beginning of war at the kurukshEthra - by that action of 
blowing of krishNa, it is described in the bagavath geetha, that the hearts of 
sons of dhritharaashtra were broken. PaNdu means olden days.

Now the grammatical specialty- there are four different nouns or actions are in 
the first line. 

Their corresponding verbs are found in the second line in the same order. This 
is the specialty.

Generally the subject and predicate [noun and verb] follows each other with the 
object coming in the queue. 

Here four subjects or objects first. Then four verbs.

This kind of arrangement is called yathaa sankhya alankaaram in sanskrit 
grammar.

The definition of that alankaaram is
udhdhishtaanaam padha arthhaanaam poorvam paschaadh yathaa kramam |
anudhdhEsO BhavEth athra thath thath athra thath yathaasankhyamishyathE || 

[re page 547 prathaapa rudhreeyam krishnadhaas varanasi publication]

meaning: where you have a particular order of words in the first line, 
correspondingly if you relate their actions or descriptions in the second line 
in the same order, then it is called yathaa sankhya alankaaram.

You can find this in the paasuram - 4 different actions of krishna in first 
line- four different verbs describing them in second line in same order.

That is the specialty. 

This I heard in the upanyasam recently of sri TERanganathachar swamy of 
nanganallur [who was my hindhi teacher also incidentally when both [myself and 
swamy] were in government service]. 

Since it was most enjoyable, I wanted to share with the readers.

Dhasan

Vasudevan m.g.

From: SundaraRajan Tirumanjanam 
Subject: kOyil aNNan tiru-nakshatram.

The 614th birthday (tiru-nakshatram) anniversary of 

Sri kOyil GandhADai vAdhUla-dESika 
kOyil aNNan varada-nArAyaNa-guru 

would be observed from September 29 (Monday) onwards, starting with GOshThee 
recital of periyAzhvAr tirumozhi. The SAttu-muRai on his tiru-nakshatram (kanyA 
/ puraTTASi pooraTTAdi / poorva-prOshThapadA) day (October 8 Wednesday) marks 
the concluding recital of tiru-vAi-mozhi, irAmAnuSa nooRRantAdi and 
upadESa-ratnamAlai.

Sri aNNan was the eighth generation descendant of Sri mudali ANDAN (dASarathi), 
the nephew of uDaiyavar. ANDAN had been appointed by uDaiyavar, and had 
functioned with great distinction, as the sEnApati-dhurandhara (principal 
administrator) of the Great Temple (periya kOyil) of Lord Sriranga-nAtha in 
Srirangam. It was ANDAN
who accompanied Sri Ramanuja on his exile from Srirangam (occasioned by Saiva 
persecution), and had neatly carried out the pancha-nArAyaNa-pratishThA 
(raising of 5 nArAyaNa sannidhi-s) in the kannada region of the hoiSala ruler 
Bitti-deva alias Vishnu-vardhana.

The family name of GandhADai (Gandha, meaning fragrant; ADai, meaning vastram) 
attached to the son of ANDAN, who as infant exuded the aroma of the cloth on 
which the Lord's food offering was brought.

kOyil aNNan, deriving from such distinguished ancestry, had lived a blessed 
life of service to the Lord so single-mindedly that he never went out of 
Srirangam on visits at all. For this reason, he came to be reverenced as 

'kAviri kaDavAda GandhADai aNNan' 
(aNNan who never crossed the river kAviri, which embraces Srirangam on the 
north and the south).

Sri maNavALa-mA-muni appreciated the eminent position of the GandhADai clan in 
our sampradAyam, and issued a special SlOkam-taniyan in favour of kOyil aNNan 
who came to be reckoned among the ashTa-dik-gajam (the guardian elephants of 
the eight directions) of mA-munikaL.

As of now, the Great Temple honours for vAdhUla-dESika representing 
mudali-ANDAN, are rendered by turn to Sri kOyil aNNan svAmi and appan 
Sri-ranGAcharya svAmi. The other sthala-AchAryas are Sri uttama-nambi, 
Sriranga-nArAyaNa jeeyar svAmi, and bhaTTar (Sri parASara bhaTTar and Sri 
vEda-vyAsa bhaTTar, by turn).

aDiyEn rAmAnuja-dAsan
tirumanjanam sundara rajan,
in Srirangam.

***************************************

The kOyil aNNan tiru-mALika finds itself short of funds for proper rendering of 
the daily worship to the presiding deity, azhakiya SinGar.

An appeal is accordingly carried in the aNNan tiru-nakshatram programme,

for contributions from the disciples, as well as those who rightly revere aNNan 
as an important personage of the sampradAyam.

A deposit of Rs.2000/- will take care of the expenses of a day's tiru-ArAdhanam 
thro' the interest realised. Inquiries at ~~

East Uttara Street,

From: nsp 
Subject: How to see the LOrd 1- AzhwAr 's observation

Dear devotees,True the Lord has to be experienced and not just seen. That is 
why AzhwAr clearly states "en nejinAl nOkkik kANEr" thiru voi mozhi 5-5-2. 
"KInldy see the Lord through my mind" Unless the experience is adapted the 
emotions cannot be comprehended.It is this emotion which outpoured as the 
magnum opus -thiru voi mozhi.

Dear srEvaishNavites, Sri sadagopan Iyengar from Coimbatore had written an 
article on how generally people miss the Lord's important appearance, His 
looks, sAthupadi etc. while visiting him in temples or otherwise. The essence 
of the article was, we miss the focus of the visit due to lack of total 
involvement and fail to observe the relevant things.

This triggered a train of thought in my mind. This highlighted how AzhwAr s 
experience with the Lord was a complete contrast ascompared to ourselves. 
Hence, these series of postings.
vanamamalai padmanabhan

How to See the Lord 1- AzhwAr 's Observation



Please refer to the periya thiruvandhAdhip pAsuram 
" anREa nam kaN kANum AzhiyAn kAr vuruvam inREA nAm kANAdhiruppadhuvum, 
enREanum katkaNNAl kANAdha avvuruvai, 
nenjennum vutkaNNEal kANUm vuNarndhu" periya thiruvandhadhi 28

The Lord cannot be seen by the named organ 'eye'. The eye is only a external 
sight organ. Unless, our mind experiences and realise the divine Lord we can 
indeed see Him. 
The vyAkyAnam is excellent in this regard:" parama bhakthi piRandhu avvasthuvai 
vozhiya chellAmai yAdhoru pozhudhu piRakkum. appOdhu kANum nam kaN" 

Thus it is apparent that the inner realisation manifests through the eyes and 
exhibits the divine sight and not vice-versa.
