A Peep into Periya Thiru-Mozhi 30-thiru-mA-magaL

[Guest guest]

thiru-mA-magaL

 

I cannot hide my pleasure while talking of this term "thiru-mA-magaL'.

While referring to periya pirAtti, it is commonplace to see that

'thirumagaL' is being often quoted. When 'thiru-mA-magaL' is

mentioned it is felt that periya pirAtti is indeed giving divine

vision to us. It is no secret that sri kaliyan liked this term and

repeatedly quoted this from time to time.

 

It is an accepted concept in our philosophy that periya pirAtti is

personification of mercy and thirumangai AzhwAr refers to this aspect

time and again when making a special mention of 'thiru-mA-magaL'

 

The final pAsuram of the ninth thiru-mozhi in the second ten triggers a train of thought.

'sEr mannu senthamizh vallAr -thiru-mA-magaL than aruLAl' 2-9-10; paramEsura viNNagaram

A few more instances:

 

' pUvAr thiru-mA-magaL pulgiya ArbA' 4-7-9; aNNan kOil

 

"thiru-mA-magaL maruvum siRu puliyUr thalasayanam" 7-9-9; siRu puliyUr

 

'thiru-mA-magaLAl aruL mAri.." 8-6-10;thiru-k-kaNNapuram

 

''..thiru-mA-magaLaip peRRum.." 9-5-10; thiru-k-kuRunkudi

 

'nila magaL sevvi thOya vallan,

thiru-mA-magatu iniyAn" 9-10-2; thiru-k-kOttiyUr

 

"thiurthAi sempOthEa,

thriu-mA-magaL than kaNavan" 10-10-1;
