ALL THE 30
WRONG
Sri Kaliyam mentions in last pAsuram
of one of his Tirumozhi-s as poimozhi onRiLLAdha pulamaiyALan-âàààà àààà ààààààààààâ
Sri Nam AzvAr mentions in one of the
TiruvAimohzi-s that TiruvAimozhi is 'poyyil pADAl;-àààààààà
ààààà àààààà'
Both of them vouch for the truth and cerify
the correctness beyond doubt.
Sri ANDAL however, in TiruppAvai -which we
all celebrate as the very root of VEDham- mentions in the last
'all the 30 as wrong'. What is this
paradox?\
The last pAsuram reads as
follows
'muppathum
thappAmEA!'
Sri Kanchi swamy in his Thiruppavai
upanyasam says, "muppadhum thappAmE". Some people take it as "Muppathum
thappAmE! ---- are all the 30 wrong?"
Actually this is muppathum thappAmal
-Without missing any pAsuram we should chant.
The tamil grammar permits certain
permissible change in the letters, more so in the last letter. Either the letter
is missing or changed. One of the example is pandhar for pandhal -refer 18th
pAsuram of TiruppAvai.
Similarly, in case of This the last
syllable gets twisted and changed we can say ETRup pOli+kaDaik kuRai
The final syllable changing from thappAmal
to thappAmEa and the final 'al' completely missing.
We should understand this
as
'ààààààààà
ààààààààâ when we chant âààààààààà
àààààààààâ
(AS reported by Smt Sumithra
and Sri Varadarajan)
Sri Mukund from Singapore
gives the following inputs and value additions.
Grammatically both mEA and mal are 'nErasai' seers and hence
pAvilakkaNam stand good for both.
Osai is good with mEA rather than 'mal' and hence this might have
been the way of chanting from nathamuni's time.
Apart from these, thappamEA is a vinai yeccham which has to go
with ingu ipparisu uraippAr and need not be be stopped with
thappamEA.
Kanchi swami's genius in explaining this any small
misunderstanding that arises here is exemplary
