From: "S.Parthasarathy" <spartha@xxxx> To: Ram Anbil <Ramanbil@xxxx> Subject: Re: [SriRangaSri] (unknown) Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 22:51:06 +0530 (IST) Dear Sriman Anbil Swami, Please accept adiyen's humble respects. I would like to add one more fact with your very beautiful meaning of Sri AandAl's VAzhi thirunAmam in the following. #The 4th line reads: ?Perumpudur maa munikkup pinn aanaal Vaazhiye? meaning#?She became the younger sister of Perumpudur Maamuni (Bhagavad Ramaanujar).#The period of Andal was in 7c AD. The Sage lived from #1017 to 1137 AD. Is it not anachronism to call him the elder brother of#Andal? This expression is not historical but is figurative. It is said that #Andal desired to offer the Lord of Tirumaalirumsolai, a 100 vessels of sweet #pudding (Akkaara adisil). Bhagavad Raamaanuja is said to have fulfilled her #desire by actually offering the same on her behalf. The general practice in#those days was that the elder brother is the one who usually fulfills the #desires of his younger sister. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- --> It is told and believed that Srimad Ramanujar heared the voice of Sri AndAl from the Garba Gruham saying "en annAvO?", after He fulfilled Sri AndAl's desire to offer the sweet pudding to PerumAl. This divine voice made the brotherhood relation established... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please correct me if adiyen is wrong. Adiyen, Parthasarathy.
