Guest guest Posted April 14, 1995 Report Share Posted April 14, 1995 Dear bhakti group, I chanced upon the following paasuram on nammaazhvaar yesterday night: ovaath thuyarp piRavi utpada maRRev evaiyum, moovaath thani muthalaay moovulakum kaavalOn, maavaagi aamaiyaay mIn aagi maanidam aam, thEvaathi thEva perumaa Nnen_thIrththanE. 2.8.5 I was hoping someone could shed light on why aazhvaar addresses perumaaL as his "thIrththan" in the last line. What exactly is he saying? I don't know of any temple where the deity is known as thIrththan, nor does it seem particularly appropriate for the word to simply mean the "sanctifier" or "sanctified". If anyone has any ideas, pleas respond. Yours, Mani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 14, 1995 Report Share Posted April 14, 1995 Oops. Needless to say, the first line of my previous mail should read: "I chanced upon the following paasuram by nammaazhvaar" Mani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
