Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 Dear Sri Srikanth: here are the answers. Others can add their inputs : At 07:44 AM 12/28/01 -0800, you wrote: >dear all >i have some doubts >why is lord of kumbha konam called KUDANTHAI KumbakONam in Tamil is called Kudamukku. The pot (Kumbham/Kudam)containing all material for Srishti floated on the waters of deluge and stayed put at the site of today's KumbakONam and the material inside was released here for the creation to go on . It happened when the kudam ws hit by the arrow of KumbhEswaran , the presiding deity of the famous Siva Temple here. >why is the lord at thirupper is called APPAKUDANTHAN He is giving darsanam hugging a kudam of Appam. >why is perumal is refered to as KUDAMADU KOOTHTHAN in >tha paasurams. This is a dance of cowherds , where you skillfully balance the pots on shour shoulders, head and dance without droppong them.This dance takes place at the junction of streets ( Santhi). Lord KrishNa is the top most practioner of this art to the utter delight of GopAs and Gopis. Hence it is called Kudam+aadu+Kootthu. It is not a classical dance . Hence it is called Kootthu. It is like anothe rfolk dance called Karaham. >where can we find the paasurams in which Thirumazhisai >alwar asks the lord of tiruvakka to follohim >" kanikkannan pokkozhinthan.....etc" is it in >tiruchenthavirutham or in nanmukan tiruvanthathi You wont find th verse there. It is part of the life history of Thirumozhisai based on what happened at ThiruvehhA. It is in AzhwAr charithram and not in prabhandham.That waht happened there is true , since there is even today a village near Kaanchi called Orurikkai ( One night stay), where PerumAl stayed with AzhwAr and KaNikaNNan after he left His temple. >please any body clarifie my doubts >namaskarams and happy new year to all >sreekanth Best wishes, V.Sadagopan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
