A note of Reference for Pakshi Raaja Mahaatmiyam

[Guest guest]

The Garuda Mahaatmiyam (the two varNaNais, most of part 2A and full of part 2B)

as a part of Thiru NaRaiyoor temple thala puraaNam, was the concise and literal

translation of "sanskrit - tamil - english" of Swami Desikan's Garuda

Panchaasath. I have been translating and writing and typing this for the last 1

month whenever I find some time and where ever I go either at home or

play-place (sometimes even in "Discovery Zone" where my son goes to play and I

accompany him), so that it could be presented for to-day the "kal garuda

sErvai", as I did. The three parts that couldnot be completed due to lack of

time are

 

1. Sarpa Naasana VarNaNai

2. AlaNkaara varNaNai

3. Athputha VarNaNai

 

I hope some day, I will present them as well with reference to other Garuda

sErvais of importance among the 108 DD's.
