Shri : Shri Kaari-Maaran Thunai Dear Shri TCA Swaamin Adiyaen's Pranaams. You are like a Giant Star in this yahoo-group forum !!! I am privileged to provide with my little (subtle) knowledge of what i learnt from my late Father (who in turn learnt from a Strong Army of our Bhagavathaas living in Srivilliputtur). I dont have any hand-written proof to base my argument about Kaliyan. Kaliyan got killed in Thirukurungudi (precisely in Vayal-kaadu) In my home we used to have a writings (Yedu in Palm Leaf - Panai Olai ) in Krantham Language. My Great grand father read this grantham to my father. and my father orally told to my elder brther & i overheard some of the stories. Unlike other Azhwars , Kaliyan's life is very Dynamic & Turbulant role and it was full of Braveness, courage & Ananya-Bhakthi. Even if you notice all the Azhwars , Kaliyan is the only Murattu Azhwar Having a Vael in his Hand ( for his bravery ) Half of the story is ........... Story goes like this ============== In one of robbery sites - Kaliyan was near to the Treasure (Por- Kalanjiyam) there used to be non-stopping Chakra which kaliyan dont know how to stop. he has been given a Hint that Vazhai maram could stop that Chakra. Kaliyan used lot of Vaazhai maram to stop that chakra.. Kaliyan cross the last hurdle to that treasure. while they pack off the jewels(all other ornaments).... Kaliyan's Associate was caught in trap (like Pori). The Robbery Gang was unable to get the Trapped kaliyan's Associate out of pori. In order to ensure that Kaliyan & his associates dont get caught after robbery & escape safely with wealth Kaliyan killed one of his associates (robber) by cutting his head off & packed his head with him. (like Ali-baba story ) !! The Associate can (may) be one of Thola-Vazhakkan, Thaaal- ooothuvaan, Nizhal-pin-selvaan, Neer-mel-nadappaan. The associate man , whose head was cut , he instantly took a birth and started growing like a vazhai maram. (again at almighty's wish to fulfill the rules of Isho Upanishad !!!) Kaliyan was spending his last years of life in thirukurungudi ....... , In thiru-kurun-gudi-Vayal-kaadu , he (That Resurgent Man)blocked the Kaliyan at his old age and said i am going to cut off your head. Kaliyan have no energy to fight. but to agree.He prayed for almighty to have a last darshan from Thirukurungudi perumaal, almighty agreed and after darshan was over , Kaliyan's Head was cut off by that man. [ This implies that one can see temple or tower from Vayal Kaadu. I am assuming this sentence as i have no clue about these places !!! ] This story, i heard from my father. and who in turn through either Yedu / through word of mouth told us. If any of the other bhagavathaas can shed a full-story on this topic, then it will be Great !!! But whatever i said ..is... from my consiousness i still have in my mind ( through my father) and NOT a cooked-up-story !!! Adiyaen - Kaari-maara-piraap Daasan ******************************************************* Naadeer Naal thorum Vaada Malar Kondu Padeer Avan Naamam - Vee-dey Pera-laamaey !!! Kannan Kalal-inai Nannum manam udaiyeer Yennum thirunaamam thinnam Naaranamaey !!! Our Beloved Kaari-maaran is pointing to Vishnu Sahasranaamam.!!!! May i...) i catch hold of Kaarimaarn's feet in my mind like crocodile catching Gajendra's Feet in water-Pond !!! Kaari-maaran... Kaari-maaran...Kaari-maaran...Kaari-maaran...Vazhka un-naamam. ******************************************************* Please chant Sahasranaamam This is the last word from my father before he departs this imperfectioned world for Parama-Padam. after his ardous & tough penance & Saint hood life..... ************************************************************ --- In ramanuja@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "vtca" <vtca@xxxx> wrote: > > > Sri: > > Dear Sri Balaji, > > Can you let us know the reference from where you got this > notion about Thirumangai Azhvar getting killed. > > 6000padi Guru Parampara Prabhavam does not say much > about the final days of Azhvar.
