SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama: Dearest all, Kulasekara AzhwAr has written only one Tamil composition called PerumAl Thirumozhi comprising 105 verses, roughly divided into ten decades. The other one is in Sanskrit ?Mukund mala?. These tamil verses are divine and very sweet full of anubhavam and laden and impregnated with bhakti. The first three decads are devoted more to the glory of archA moorthy of Srirangam. He specifically expresses his zeal, craving for having the divine darshan at Srirangam, the yearning to join and spend the great time with the company of bhAgwathas at Srirangam. He declares his madness after God . In the next few decads, he sings the glory of Thirumala Srinivasan, the archA moorthy at ThiruvEnkatam and Thillai chithra kootam and ThiruvitthuvakkOdu, a religious shrine at Kerala. In the last decades, he expresses his mystic experience of God by enjoying the few episodes from Srimad Bhagaewatha and Srimad Ramayanam. He has expressed very beautifully imagining himself in the role of Devaki as to how she had lost the child leela, pranks of Kutti KaNNan, and weeps over her plight at being forced to forsake the joy of being with Kutti KaNNan and enjoying his mischief. AzhwAr also poses himself as Yasodha and sings lullaby to Lord Rama puring out motherly affection towards Rama as a baby. AzhwAr also pours out as King Dasaratha and laments over Rama?s exile in the forest. In these wonderful divine verses, the Bhagawath kainkaryam and BhAgawatha kainkaryam and Bhagawatha sEshathvam are spelt out explicitly and clearly. Swamy Desikan salutes this AzhwAr's prabhandham as ?Nann PoruL sEr Thirumozhi? (the divine utterances that have deep and auspicious doctrines(meanings) embedded in them. These uniquely Sri VaishNavA doctrines are Lord's Parathvam, Prapatti at His sacred feet, Sesha-Seshi relationship, Bhaktha Paaratantryam (subservience to BhakthAs), fearlesslness (nirbbhayam) after SaraNAgathi and others. The first verse: iruLiriyas sudarmaNiga Limaikkum neRRi inaththuththi yaNipaNamaa yiranga Laarntha aravarasap peruncOthi yanantha Nnennum aNiviLangu muyarveLLai yaNaiyai mEvi thiruvarangap perun^agaruL theNNeerp ponni thiraikkaiyaa ladivarudap paLLi koLLum karumaNiyaik kOmaLaththaik kaNdu koNdu en kaNNiNaika LenRukolO kaLikkum naaLE 1.1 In the land of divya desam of Srirangam the darkness is completely dispelled and shattered by the resplendent brightness that emanates from the forehead and the gem stones on the heads of thousand headed AdhisEshan, the king of snakes, mahaa thEjasvI, ThiruvananthAzhwAn and on his most beautiful, white, cool body as the bed, reclines Periya PerumAL Azhagiya ManavaaLan, the most beautiful divine Lord Sri Ranganathan the personification of Sowkumaaryam, Soundharyam and laavaNyam, at whose lotus feet gently touches the cool crystal clear waters of the river cauveri as if it washes and worships the Lord?s Lotus Feet. When will my eyes be blessed to see and enjoy sEviccufying such Most Beautiful Periya PerumAL? It is in similar lines of Swami Ramunja?s anubhavam when Sri Ramanuja asserts in Gadyatrayam.. mamakula nAtham, mama kula daivatham.. kadhaaham bhagavantam narayanam mama kula natham mama kula daivatham...sakshaat karavaaNi chaksushaa?.. Sri Ranganathan is Our Kula nAThan; Our Kula dhanam. Our Kula Deivam.
