THE DIVINE CONNEXION

BHAGAVATHA SAMBANDHAM

Separation from EmperumAn torment AzhwAr-s. They think of the Almighty ever in

everything.

 

Some insects -thumbE- swarm parakAla nAyaki-s fragrant tresses,. Thirumangai

AzhwAr mentons to them

 

" Hey! insects.What food can you savour from the hair of a woman being separated

from The Lord Almighty. Instead go and smell the fragrance of thriuthuzhAi

adroning the head of the savarip perumAL; savour the smell in the thiruthuzhAi

garland of savarip perumAL of ThirukkaNNapuram; Devour the scent of beatuiful,

wonderful, sweet and divine ThiruthAi around The ThriukkaNNapuram EmpeurmAn. And

wait! do not stop at that.Come back to me and with that touch of these fragrance

from these which has nexus with the Lord, shall I sustain myself" thus spake

AzhwAr.

 

This is all in the fourth thirumozhi of the 8th ten of Periya Thirumozhi

The fragrance from the divine thiruthuzhAi which had the connexion of The

EmperumAn will definitely sustain her and the request is thus made accordingly
