Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 WITNESS SHIVA In the earlier posting it was seen that sri azhagia maNavALap perumAL nAyanAr pointed out that swAmi nam-AzhwAr had used the term "kaLvA" and thErthan' in the second pathu to establish Lord's supremacy by vision and words. The vision seen by arjunA was seen in the previous message. In this posting let us see about "kaLvA" ."kaLvA" is the word uttered by shivA towards Lord krishNA. thiru voi mozhip pAsuram 2-2-10 describes this event: "kaLvA! emmaiyum, Ezhulagum nin vullEa thORRiya iRaiva! enRu veL ERan, nAnmugan, indhiran, vAnavar, puLLUrdhi kazhal paNindhu EthuvarE" "You deceit! You are the person who has created me and the whole world" with this word shiva worshipped Lord krishNA. What is this episode? shivA desired a boon from the Lord. He wanted the Lord to take a boon from Him so that everybody will believe in his superiority.Lord krishNa went and approached shivA and asked for a son for rukminip pirAtti. Oh! Lord, YOu are the creator of us and the whole world and if you ask for such a boon who will believe this. Deceit-kaLvA.
