Fwd: Your posting--2nd Question- Thiruppavai as Veda Vittu ??

[Guest guest]

Smt. Vathsala,

I would refer you to the article "thiruppavai - 3" of Shri Anand Karalappakam

dt.28/2/99 appearing in BHAKTI LIST ARCHIEVES 1999, which in my opinion will

clear your doubt.

With Best Wishes,

K. Raman

Sri Narasimhan,

 

I think that you missed my 2nd question and hence posting the same seperately.

 

Iam regularly watching thirupavai upanyasam in jaya TV by Shri Andavan Swamilgal

and Shri Azhagiya Singar swamigaL and also Shri Velikudi krishnan swamigaL thru

podigai TV. I happened to visit some temples around madras to hear the

upanyasams. In every upanyasam, i find the explanation about how Andal in the

baavam of gopika wakes other girls to sing on krishna. No upanyasakar told how

this thirupavai is "vedamanaithukkum vithu".How can a simple "wake up" songs be

seed of all vedas? Is it a right statement or statement to just praise

thirupavai? I request learned members to clear my doubt.If my question is wrong,

forgive me.

Sri Krishnaswamy,

Thanks for your response. I read the tirupavai articles in the archives posted

by shri anand. But i do not find the answer to my question on that. He has

mentioned generally to divyaprabandams and referrred govinda jeer's incident.

But note that "vethamanaithukum vithakum kothai thamizh i iyainthum iyunthum"

which refers to thirupavai alone. In the upanyasams which happen now including

the ones which i referred in my question, we do not hear anything which relates

to veda. They all say that she went to each house and trying to wake up Girls to

sing in praise of lord. And in some pasurams, continous argument between and

girl who sleep inside and andal standing outside were explained. My doubt is

that how come a wake up songs of this kind be "vedamanaithukkum vithu"?

Iam strongly beleive that there should be some strong meaning behind that word

"vethamanaithukum vithu" as our Great Ramanuja became and was called thirupavai

jeer. Iam chanting daily the thaniyan and pasurams but will get conviction over

it if the doubts get cleared.

Dear Srimati Vatsala,

 

The vedas are eye openers and show mere mortals like

us the "Param Purusha" Sriman narayana , in the same

way these 30 pasurams are supposed to wake people like

us who are sleeping despite having our eyes open and

attain the "Thriruvadi" of Sriman narayana.

 

I have heard frm purna adhikaris in Vedas that each

vedas take around 32 years to only by heart them.The

comes the part of interpreting it . What ever vedas

establish with such great diffficulty, Goda Pirati

just described in mere 30 pasurams and showed us the

way to attain "Paraman Adi". Thats why in the early

pasurams she repeatedly askes people like us who are

always sleeping to wake up and realise the supreme

being which is "Sriman narayana". Thats the reason why

"Thrupavai" is called as "vethamanaithukum vithu".

 

I sincerly request all the learned bhagavats to pardon

any wrong interpretation on adiyens part.

 

Dasan ,

Anand

 

P.S: I think due to lack of time allocated by the TV

programs, acharyas would find it extremely difficult

to explain each and every intricacy involved (which

are so beautiful and these explanations have been

provided by all the porvacharyas)in "Thirupavai" and

so they resort to only giving the gist of the

pasurams.

 

So please do understand acharyas position in the TV

programs.
