Ippasi Mulam - Vaidika Mulam - 1

[Guest guest]

Let us enjoy the greatness of Swamy Manavala Mamunigal. His birth day Ippasi

mulam is:

"sentamizh vEdiyar sindai telindu sirandu magizhndidu nAl"

 

sentamizh - dravida veda - 4000 pasurams.

vEdiyar - one who chant them giving more importance than sankrita veda

sindai telindu - cleared of all doubts which they had on reciting sanskrita

vedas.

sirandu - attained glory

magizhndidu - full of joy and happiness

naal - the day ippasi mulam which gave them this happiness.

 

This phrase explains that it was only due to the birth of Swamy Manavala

Mamunigal, vaidikas were cleared of all the doubts they had in sanskrita and

dravida vedas. "MAttrattra sempon mamavala mamunivan vandilanEl Attril karaitta

puLi allavO tamizh aranamE. " But for the birth of Swamy Manavala mamunigal,

tamil vedas would have been wasted as their proper meaning would not have come

to light. He was the one who spent his whole life in making everyone understand

the greatness of alwars and tamil prabandhams beyond the lines of caste, creed

and language. Being a sober atma, he too is harsh when it comes to condemning

the traitors of tamil prabandhams. He says in upadesa rattina malai -

"alwArgalayum arulicheyalgalayum tAzhvaga ninaippavar tAm narakil vIzhvArgal".

 

So ippasi mUlam is the root for all vaidikas.

Let us also hail ippasi mUlam.
