Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 Shri RAmAnujasya CaraNou Sharanam PraPadhyE NamskAram DAshyai Sumithra VaradarAjan AvarkaLE. I am sorry for my misunderstanding about the identity of the author of the ThirumAlai Series. Please excuse me. I really enjoyed the piece as it made me think. Thank you for the refernce to the Commentaries of Shri ParAsara Bhattar. I am a teacher of adolescent childern, not of scholars or even university kids. When I teach chidren I see a great need to focus and stay on a central idea. And it seemed to me that I was missing something central in the beautiful and the most famous PAcuram of ThondardipPodi AazvAr. I learnt it in my school days in ThirucChirapPaLLi. The song has always left me wondering. I have remembered the first two lines for more than 45 years now. It is one of very few songs whose first two lines I remember. The two words that have frustrated me over the years were "Paccai" in "PacaiMA Malai" and "AccuthA". Hence my comment. Thanks to your posting, I have now resolved the issue to my satisfcation at least for the moment. Please keep working. Vandhanam. Visu Naha SrIkurvaksmAn KrupAm: May He endow us with Grace here and now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
