11/01/2006, Wedenesday: : Koodarai Vellum Pasuram of Tiruppavai
SPECIAL OFFERING OF 100 TADAS OF SARKARAI PONGAL TO OUR LORD ON THAT DAY

In the 27th pasuram of Tiruppavai, Sri Andal Nachchiyar talks about the 
'Sanmaanams' we receive by observing the Margazi Nonbu and surrendering at the 
Lotus Feet of Sriman Narayanan.  A beautiful paasuram, which can be more 
enjoyed by juxtaposing with the second paasuram, 'Vaiyathu VaazhveergaL', in 
which she describes the dos and dont's of observing the Margazhi Nonbu.

In the 27th pasuram , Sri Andal talks about various jewels and new dress that 
we would wear and the delicious food that we would eat as part of the Lord's 
Gift to us on completion of the 'Nonbu'.  The food is the rice boiled in milk 
(Paal Soru), hidden in pure ghee, and while eating the ghee should melt to the 
heat of the food and flow through the hand to reach the elbow.  What a 
fantastic description of a delicious food of a prasadam!

Hence, this day is celebrated in all temples and Panchangams and calendars mark 
this day as 'Koodarai Valli'.  Sri Andal, in her second Prabandham, 
'Naachchiyar Tirumozhi' desires through one of her paasurams dedicated to the 
Lord of Tirumaliruncholai (Kallazhagar, Madurai) to offer 100 Tadas (a big 
vessel) of Butter and yet another 100 Tadas of Akkaravadisil.  

To celebrate the grand creativity, devotion and ambitious offering to Her Lord 
by Sri Andal, the world gathers together in Lord Sriman Narayanan's temples to 
offer 100 Tadas (in miniature form) of Akkaravadisil on this day.

Thiruvengadamudaiya TiruvadigaLe Saranam.
