THE SLEEPING BRAHMA
 
rAvna, as we know had sought boon from BrahmA.
 
When  brahmA was sleeping, EmperumAn took the form of an infant and indicated to brahma by counting the ten heads of ravana.( Sri PBA svami points out that this event has been recorded only by Sri PEi AzVAr and Tirumazhisai Azvar and not in purANams or idihAsams)
 
Actually, a doubt may arise, why should  ravana approach while brahma was sleeping?
 
It is again because of joining of certain letter combinations this happens.
 
Aindha arumaRaiyon nAnmugathaOan nangu vuRangil
yEaindha lkuzhaviyAi,....mUnRam tiruvandhAdi 77
 
àààààà ààààààààààà ààààààààààààà àààààààààààà
àààààà àààààààààà....
 
the words nangu vurangil -While in Good sleep.
 
Actually this word should not be split like this but as
Aindha ArumaRAiyOan nAnmugathOAn nan-kuRangil
yEinha kuzaviyAi
 
 
àààààà ààààààààààà ààààààààààààà ààà-ààààààààà
àààààà àààààààààà-àààààààà ààààààààààà -77
kuRangu is lap.
 
The Lord took the form of an infant on the lap of Brahma
when ravanan had approached for a boon.
 
So when we chant we chant like nan kuRangil
 
dasan
vanamamalai padmanabhan
