A Praarthanai to Sri Kanakavalli SamEtha Sri VeerarAghava Prabhu

 

Dear BhakthAs :

 

The visit on the 1998 PurattAsi EkAdasi Friday

to Thiru evvuLL KshEthram and the enjoyment of the

most beautiful Thirumanjana sEvai of the divya dampathis

are now deeply etched in my memory . I wish to celebrate

that parama BhAgyam with a krithi set in the majestic

NaatAi raagam that rmeinds one of the ghOsham of

the Kodhandam of Sri Raghuveeran on the battle front

in action .

 

I conclude this kruthi with a personal prayer in

gadhyam style from the divya naamAs used at this

divya desam .F irst the kr*thi and then the Gadhyam paasage.

 

The inspiration for these krithi and Gadhya vaakyams

have come from reading the ThiruveLLUr Sthala PurANam ,

Sri KimgruhEsa SthOthram , Sri Veerarghava AshthOthra

Satha NaamAvaLi , Sri Swathi ThirunAAL's naatai

Krithi on Sri Aantha PadmanAbhan of Thriuvanathapuram .

 

The English translation of the padhams and Vaakhyams

used are given at the end of the Sanskrit passages :
