SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama:
Dearest all, 

Today is Bhoothatthazhwar TN. 

PoigaiAzhwAr, BhoothatthAzhwAr and PEyAzhwAr are the three mudhal (first) 
AzhwArs who were not only contemporary azhwArs; but were born on three 
consecutive days in SiddhArti year, Aiyppasi month on TiruvONam, Avittam and 
sadhayam nakshathrams respectively ;and the babies appeared on flowers of 
different kind (and not were born like us actually!- They are ayOnijars). 

PoigaiAzhwAr, was born (made to appear by the Lord) in kancheepuram, while 
bhoodaththAr in mahabalipuram and pEyAzhwAr in thirumylai (present Mylapore).

1. PoigaiAzhwAr, an incarnation of MahAvishNu's paanchjanyam (Divine conch, 
sanghu in Tamil) is also called Adhi kavi. poigaiAr appeared on the ThAmarai 
mottu (lotus bud) in a pond in tiruvekka near kancheepuram.

2. BhoothaththAzhwAr appeared in a flower called "kurukkaththi"(?) in a 
garden at kadalmallai port of pallava rajyam (kingdom) in mahAbalipuram 
(south of madras). He was an incarnation of Divine mace (called kaumOdaki) of 
our Lord mahAvishNu.

3. PEyAzhwAr, as an incarnation of the sword of mahAvishNu (called nandaki), 
appeared in sevvalli (Red alli-lily) flower in a well of AdhikEsava perumAL 
koil at mylapore (in madras).


November 5th, 6th and 7th are the Thirunakshathams of these three Great 
AzhwArs respectively on ThiruvONam, avittam and sathaya nakshathras. 

Yesterday we enjoyed Poigai muni Thirunakshathram. 
Let us pay our obeisance to Bhoothatthazhwar today on his birth star by 
contemplating on the lotus feet of azhwAr and enjoying one of his verses from 
2nd ThiruvanthAthi. 

uLandhu enRu iRumaavaar uNdillai enRu
thaLardhanalathanarugum saaraar- aLvariya
vEdatthAn vEmkatatthAn viNNOr mudi thOyum
paadhatthAn pAdham paNinndhu (45th verse of irandaam thiruvanthAthi) 

Yet another instruction to us!  Let us not jump to the skies, if we (are 
blessed to) get some thing (like getting a pay hike; or some bonus; a 
promotion, whatever-); nor shall we feel depressed and feel remorse and cry 
should we miss any thing. We should always think that everything is Bhagavath 
sankalpam. When does one get sucha manObhAvam (such balanced bent of mind)? 
azhwAr says: It will come to only those who have surrendered to the Lotus Feet 
of the Lord Sriya: Pathi Sriman Narayanan- The Lord of Vedas- 
ThiruvEmakatatthaan- Srinivasan (at whose Feet one can see the crowns of 
Nithyasooris). (so, now do we know how to get a balanced mind? YES..
