Dear bAgawathAs,

 

Moolavar Sri ArA amuthan is in utthAyana sayana kOlam. HE

has two hands. The right hand is kept under near the head and the

left hand is rested on the knee. This kOIam is so beautiful that

one will keep on having this darshan when they are in front of the

Lord in this sannithi. A small explanation is presented for the

name Sri ArA amuthan. The amirtham that dEvAs longed to have is

tasteful but if one can consume it is enough and one won't feel

like having it again. However Sri ArA amuthan is such that when

one is in this sannithi and is having this darshana amirtham, they

will want to drink this beautiful amirtham again and again and many

times. They never get saturated. "ArAtha amutham" is HIS name in

"thEn" thamizh. In Sanskrit the same is coined as "aparyAptha

amrutham" (*). This is explained in the following.

 

soodhAbhAnEshu paryApthi: yathA nAsthi thathaivathu

sEvakAnAm sArngapANE: nathrupthirhi bavanthihi:

thasmAth thameechvaram lOkE aparyAptha amrutham vithu:

 

----- kumbakOna mahAthmiyam 52 chapter

 

Sri nammAzhwAr praised the nectarine, never saturating and

uncomparable beauty of moolavar as "erAr kOlam thigazha kidanthAi

emmAnE". "erAr kOlam" can be said as "mEnmaiyAna oru azhagu

porunthiya kOlam" or the most superior form of sowntharyam is the

thiru kOlam is what YOU have. "thigazha kidanthAi". thigazha has

special use here. Many superlative adjectives are poured on the

kOlam of moolavar by many AzhwArs such that no other perumAL is

praised to this extent when AzhwArs are talking about one thing in

common; Sowntharyam. Sri ANDAL's praises to Sri RanganAtha and Sri

Azhagar cannot be mathced with the sowntharyam of Sri ArA amuthan

praised by all the AzhwArs iuncluding Sri ANDAL.

 

Two ubaya nAcchiyArs with a huge thiru uruvam that matches

the moolavar Sri ArA amuthan are sitting on either side of the

moolvar and are also enjoying this ArAtha amirtham constantly.

There is a sweet santhAna gopalan perumAL who is present as a sEsha

sAyee. It is believed that those who want a santhathi or vArisu

may keep this perumAL in their hand by observing all the protocols

and pray to HIM. Since Such worshipping brings "putthra or

santhathi bAgyam" to those, this perumAL is known as Sri SanthAna

gopalan. Saptha kannigais, all the holy rivers, gandharAs, yakshAs,

33 billion dEvas, brahma are all present on the walls that surround

the moolavar. One can see many thiru uruvams of many of them in a

very small proportion present on the wall.
