Title: Clarification required
SRI:
 
Dear Sriman Aravind :
 
You wanted to know the Sanskrit equivalent of
Thiruneermalai ThAyAr's name in Tamil :
" aNi maa malar Mangai ". First , we should
understand the meanings of the FOUR words
joining together as a Naamaa for our Mother 
at Thiruneermalai.
 
These FOUR  words are : aNi+ maa+malar  +Mangai 
 
There are 20 Paasurams of two AzhwArs on
Thiruneermalai including one from BhUthatthAzhwAr ;
the others are from Thirumangai Mannan , where you
come across these words.
 
aNi = azhagiya , beautiful
maa= big or Lakshmi
malar= flower , here the lotus flower
mangai = maiden /kumaari , who has just
crossed the stage of yuvathy .
 
aNi maamalar mangai literally means the beautiful
lady associated with the big lotus flower , who is
none other than Sri Devi, the dharma pathni of the Lord .
 
adiyen will translate therefore "aNImaamalar Mangai " as
 
SUNDARA PANKAJA VALLI .
 
She is seated in front of Her Husband on a throne of mighty lotus 
(maamalar ) according to Swamy  Desikan's SrI Sthuthi:
 
" agrE bharthu: sarasijamayE bhadrapeeDE nishaNNAm "
 
May this " Sakala Buvana PrarTanA KaamdhEnu " worshipped
at Thiruneermalai as " aNi maamalar Mangai" bless us all
during this dheepAvaLi season !
 
NarAyaNa , NaarAyaNa , NaarAyaNa !

Dear All,

Adiyen wants to know the Sanskrit equivalent of the Thirunaamam 'aNimAmalar mangai' of Thaayaar at Thiruneermalai. Can anyone from the Learned group of Periyavaas let adiyen know the same?..Thanks.
