Chakkarach selvan
 
There is  a striking  similarity of some terms used by sri nam-AzhwAr and sri thirumangai mannan. This reiterates the fact that their wavelength and thinking are same though they are from different periods.
 
Here is one such:
 
Sri nam-AzhwAr refers to sri nara-simhar as "chakkarach selvan". Lord nara-simhA killed hiranyan with His nails. SudharsanAzhwAn was only a witness to this. However, His presence in the shoulders of the Lord added beauty and this is described as "chakkrach selvan"
"pukka ari vuruvAi avunan vudal kENdugandha-chakkarach selvan thannai.." thiru-voi-mozhi 7-6-11;
 
It is the same title sri kaliyan gives to the Almighty and in the same context of hiranya-vadham
"..ari vuruvamAgi nagam kiLarndhidandhu vugandha,
chakkarach selvan then-pEAr" 5-9-5- periya thiru-mozhi;
 
There goes again another similarity.
