With reference to the query regarding Anadhyayana kaalam I am enclosing

the writeup given in the question and answer session available in the

following site

6. What is 'thirukkarthi' ? Why Prabandhas are not recited during this

period ?

Ans. The time period from Thirumangai A:lwa:r Thirunakshathram to

Ku:raththa:lwa:r Thirunakshathram is called Thirukka:rthi.

In olden days, during Adhyayanothsavams of Srirangam temple,

Namma:lwa:rs and other Alwars from different Divya De:sa:s were brought

to Srirangam. This was an arrangement made by Thirumangai Alwar. As

A:lwa:rs are not present in those respective Divya De:sa:s and the

Prabandha scholars also used to go to Sriramgam, they used to stop

reciting Divya Prabandhas in those temples. In Srirangam, it used to

take 10 to 20 days to do Prabandha Pa:ra:yana for those A:lwa:rs brought

from Divya De:sa:s. After finishing that, again, A:lwa:rs used to return

to their respective Divya De:sa:s. For this it used to take 45 days to

two months. Hence, this time was set as Anadhyayana, ie., Prabandha:s

were not read in those temples during these days. As by the time they

reach their respective temples, there comes Ku:raththa:lwa:r

Thirunakshathram. Hence, from Ku:raththa:lwar Thirunakshathram, again

Prabandha:s will be recited. To follow the uniformity in all the Divya

De:sa:s, Until Ku:raththa:lwa:r Thirunakshathram, Prabandha:s were not

recited and from that day, again they resume to recite Prabandhams.

As the rule is formulated by Thirumangai Alwar, to remember that, from

Thirumangai A:lwar Thirunakshathram onwards, Divya Prabandha:s will not

be read.

There is difference in the A:ra:dhana followed in the houses and that in

the Temples. From Thirumangai A:lwa:r Thirunakshathram, it is followed

in Temples and from the next day, it is followed in the houses too, as a

mark of respect. Incidentally it happened that the next day to

Tirumangaia:lwa:r Thirunakshatram is Thiruppa:na:lwa:r Thirunakshathram.

There is no connection between Thiruppa:na:lwa:r Thirunakshathram and

Dravida Ve:da Nigamanam.

After Thirukka:rthi, while restarting to recite the Dravida Ve:dam, in

houses, they start in the morning of Ku:raththa:lwa:r Thirunakshthram

day and in temples, according to the convenience, they start in the

morning or in the evening on the same day.

7. During Thirukkarthi if Dhanurma:sam comes, then how to recite

Thiruppa:vai during Dhanurma:sa Vratham ?

Ans. During Dhanurma:sam if Thirukka:rthi comes, then, Thiruppalli

Yeluchchi and Thiruppa:vai can be recited as usual. These two were

exempted from the Nigamanam. As A:nda:l sung the Thiruppa:vai during

this Dhanurma:sam only and this is the Vratham that one has to do during

Dhanurma:sam only, Thiruppavai is exempted from the Thirukka:rthi's

Prabandha Nigamanam rule. As Thiruppalliyeluchchi is the Prabandham that

is sung to wake up Sri:rangana:tha, that purpose exactly matches with

the Purpose of Thiruppa:vai Vratham ie., to teach Sri Rangana:tha how to

become favourable to us at the earliest. Hence, Thriuppalli Yeluchchi

will also be recited even if it is Thirukka:rthi. However, it should be

noticed that, while offering it as Vratham Kainkaryam to Lord, during

Thirukka:rthi, these Thiruppa:vai and Thiruppalli Yeluchchi should not

be recited in the other times except in the early hours of Thiruppa:vai

Vratham.

Prabhandam Sevai

 

 

Hi All,

 

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha;

 

I have joined this group recently .. I am sure definitely somebody

would have

answered this question..If yes can someone forward me the archive ID

 

I would like to know why the 'Prabhandam' should not be rendered

during the

month of Margazhi ? Some people are telling that the Prabhadam sevai

should not

be performed till the "Koorathazhvar Nakshatram" (in the month of

Thai) but

some people are telling that it can be performed once the Margazhi

month is

over? Which one is correct ? What is the reason behind it ?
