DONT OPEN THE DOORS PLEASE
 
Certian pAsurams when we chant , though we do it properly, may result in exactly the opposit emeaning
Here is one  such example
 
Sri ANDAL as per protocol, requests the guards of Sri naNdhagOPA s palace,
to open the entrance, in the sixteenth pAsuram of thiruppavai.
 
Traidtionally, we chant all the pAsurams of TiruppAvai by adding the two words em-pAvAi.
 
This happens at the end of the sixteenth pAsuram also and we usually chant as
 
nEya nilaikkadhavam nIkkEalor empAvAi
 
ààà ààààààààààà àààààààààààààààààà
 
Unfortunately, this gives the exactly the opposite meaning.
 
nIkkEal -dont open.
 
HH Sri Vanamamalai jIyar svami  (TiruvallikkeaNi svami -Sri Gopala iyengar svami , pUrvAsramam)) used to suggest that we should chant as
 
nIikku yEalor or
nIkku - a split second pasue and yEalor empAvAi.
 
(As narrated by Sri TS Sundararjan svami, several  years back)
