(So) We are not afraid of anything. There is also not anything that can come frightening us ! Notes: 1. appar was fed with poison by the religious intolerants. He was unaffected by the Grace of the viShakaNTha. Irked by this, they indulged the king to order for the angry elephant tramp the saint. When the Supreme God is there to save, why would appar be afraid of the death sentence given by emperor of pallava kingdom ?! Unruffled He sang out his unshakable trust this padhikam on the God Who kicked the death to death ! The gruesome elephant became very calm as it reached the saint, refused to hurt him and saluted him ! 2. chuNNam - powder; urivai - pealed (skin); aNNal - ancient; punal - water (river); thamar - relative. ===== --------------------------- Visit Shaivism Home Page at http://www.shaivam.org --------------------------- Games - play chess, backgammon, pool and more http://games./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
