We are enjoying the pAsuram-s of
thirumangai mannan for quite sometime. In this great day of thirunakshathiram of
nElan, it is appropriate to talk about him.
In the final pAsuram of the 'kAzhisErAma
viNNagarap' padhigam, thirumangai-mannan signs off the thirumozhi with few of
his names.
These are not just names but indeed
reflect his attitude and nature.
the pAsruam"...ankamalath thada vayal sUzh
Ali-nAdan,
aruL mAri,
arattamukki, adaiyAr sEyam,
kongu-mali kuzhaliyar vEaL
mangai vEAndhan,
koRRavEal para-kAlan,
kaliyan..." 3-4-10;
I am not able to recall any other pAsuram
where thirumangai AzhwAr signs off with such signatures.
..ankamala-thada-vayal sUzh Ali nAdan--> AzhwAr who is
the controller of the Ali-nAdu which is encompassed with lotus filled
ponds.
...aruL mAri--> The person who blesses for beningn
souls;
...arattamukki---> aratuu-amukki- The
AzhwAr who sees thzt enemies are suppressed and do not lift their heads
forever.
...adaiyAr sEyam--> the divine person who is like
a lion to the opponents.
...kongu
malar kuzhaliyar vEaL mangai vEandhan--> The Lord of
thirumangai.
...koRRa-vEal-->
The AzhwAr who took up the weapon for the sake of
srEvaishNavites.
...parakAlan-->
the person who is like yamA for the opponents
...kaliyan--> AzhwAr.
Is it
correct? A question was raised whether thirumangai mannan who
actually has to praise the Lord, should talk about himself. The Lord reply,"
even that is talking about me only" was the
Lord's reply.
