Dear Sri Padmanabhan :
 
Thanks very much for your informative postings on

I would like to invite you to post a series of postings on
Kaliyan's ThiruvEzhukURRirukkai (TVK) , where he displays
his awesome poetic powers in offering His MangaLASAsanam of
AarAvamudhan thru the multi-decked RaTa Bhandham  . Please

Subject: [Oppiliappan] A Peep into Periya Thiru-Mozhi 46

The numerical magic
1-2-3-4-5-6-7
 
To talk and write coherently is not simple.
 
Even if one talks, to talk and write with good content is difficult.
 
Even if this is possible, to make this into a psalm and poem is still complex.
 
To create such poems within the paramaters of grammar is complicate.
 
To put divine words and deeds in these is great.
 
To add numbers coherently and serially and establish the superemacy of the Lord is indeed not a simple but a difficult, complicate, complex -indeed a great, divine and Godly task.
 
This is what I feel whenever I go thorugh the thirumozhi on "sErgAzhi-kAzhich sErAma viNNagaram'
 
It is well known that sri kaliyan is 'nAlu-kavip perumAL'. To enjoy that time and again is indeed heartening.
 
The first pAsuram of the 4th thriumozhi in the 3rd ten dedicated to thAdALan, sequentially expresses one to seven, amidst all the constraints mentioned above, reiterating  sri thirumangai mannan's poetic prowess, time and again.
 
The first pAsuram
 
"1-oru kuRaLai- one little person;
2-iru nilam--- two steps;
3-mUvadi maN- three handful of land;
4-arumaRaiyin thiraL nAngum-- four vEdham-s
5-vEaLvi aindhum- five rituals;
6-angangaL avai ARum- six parts of these vEdham-s and
7-yEAzhisaiyum-- Seven music"
 
The Lord who came as one little person- measured two divine steps after asking for three handful of lands;
He is the Lord thAdALan of kAzhich sErAma viNNagaram. Fall at His divine feet, who came to rescue one and all.
This divine place is full of practice of four vEdhAs, five vEaLvi-s; six parts -vyAkaraNam etc. and seven swara vEdhAs. Reach this divine place -kAzhich sErAma viNNagaram.
