SrI:

Dear SrImAn Madhavan,

Nicely said.

"Learn from Elders" is the message from Andal (melaiyAr seivanagaL vENDuvana
kETTiyEl ..)
This is also called 'SishTAcAram',  the discipline of respectable elders.

Somebody asked AzhwAn 'Why do you worship only Narayana?'

The knowledgeable AzhwAn - who established the paratvam of Srimannarayana in
chozha-king's court - did not go into detailing 'Why'.
He simply answered 'Because our elders have been worshipping only
SrImannArAyaNa'.

This incident has been quoted by vyAkyAnakarta while explaining 'melaiyAr
seivanagaL'.
(thanks SrI u.vE Ma Venkatakrishnan swami's 'vAzhvum vAkkum of acharyas')

Dear All

 

I have gone through the second part of the ongoing series on 'A
Revolutionary Lady',  by Sri Anbil Swami.

 

One of the most inspiring part of the write up was when Sri Anbil Swami was
explaining the significance of the three aspects - thoughts, words and deeds
- how Sri Andal revolutionized and put it that it could be very easy for the
lay people to follow in the reverse direction - action (deeds), words and
thoughts. 

 

I can only imagine only all our loving elders, when they would motivate us
to simply get ready after bath in the mornings of the Margazhi and simply
either hear or recite the Tirupalli Ezhuchchi, Tiruppavai and take the
pongal prasadam. Then., coolly, at our own pace, the elders will explain the
significance of the prayers, Sri Andal and the Tiruppavai.

 

Blind faith is necessary in the formative ages for mankind and I have
experienced how well they develop the devout. In retrospect I find that
questioning blind faith is many a time very rational ! How well Sri Andal
has proved to mankind and the faithful and the devout, that it is indeed
blind faith for the Lord that paves way for the all round development of
mankind. 

 

We are fully developed and accomplished persons having successfully faced
the world and never at loss or on weak wicket when defending our faith and
the pragmatic blind faith that we had as kids.

 

Thanks to Anbil Swami once again. His thought provoking words and insights
was ringing in me throughout yesterday.

 

Regards,

 

Madhavan
