THIRUPPALLANDU VAIBHAVAM AT SRIVILLIPUTTUR

 

The Thiruppallandu Thodakkam heralding the start of the Pagal pathu-Irapathu

Utsavams is a unique feature at Srivilliputtur with the celebration

of the Thiruppalandu Vaibhavam.

 

The Thiruppalandu thodakkam usually starts

around 5-6 pm on the first day of the Pagal

pathu Utsavam at the Gopala Vilasam in front of

the Periaperumal sannidhi.The Scene when Periyazhwar rode the Elephant and sang

Pallandu

for Perumal is enacted here.Periyazhwar mounts

the Vellai Yanai Vahanam and Emperuman is on the Garuda Vahanam..Cymbals(mani)

are brought to the Bhattar who in front of Periyazhwar.The Bhattar

takes the Cymbals and and keeps the Cymbals momentarily on Periyazhwar's

hand and then strikes the two metallic ends twice and returns them

back.The Arayar comes forward and then sings the first two Pasurams

of Thiruppalandu with the thalam.

After this there is Veedhi Purappadu when Perumal and Azhwar go through the mada

veedhis.

Back at the Pagal Pathu mandapam(Gopala Vilasam) ,the Bhattar

asks if all the Azhwar's have come.He calls out

the names of all the Azhwar's one by one and the

Azhwar's are offered Maryadai correspondingly.

Then the ARAYAR gives VYAKYANAM for the first

TWO pasurams of Thiruppalandu.This Vyakyanam

is for about an hour or more.Then he continues

with the other Pasurams of thiruppallandu and

the members of the Ghosti join the Arayer.

Continuing with Vanna Madangal Soozh...,the

pasurams of Periyazhwar Thirumozhi are recited

upto Senniyongu.(Senniyongu is started on the

next day).The days proceedings usually stretch upto 2-3 am.
