Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Dear Padmanabhan Swami., I thoroughly enjoy reading your bits on Kaliyan Paasurams. It means a lot to those who have tasted the anubhavam in the Tiruvallikkeni Ghoshti, but miss it presently. In the recent bit #105, > The same thing happens. em-perumAn pierces hiranyan with this nails > and the blood flows along his body. hiranyan being gold is similar > to mEAru -golden and he is given a blood bath -- a golden blood > bath flowing from his chest. On the above pasuram - I think, the actual depiction would be the falls-like (Aruvi-Niagara) flow of red blood - Kurudhi (not golden blood) flowing from a golden mountain like body would be more appropriate. Also, VenKurudhi here i think refers to Vemmai (warm or heat)- Kurudhi. So, it is Warm-Red blood flowing out of a golden mountain (Hiranya Kasipu). -arulmari. - Padmanabhan <aazhwar ramanuja <ramanuja>, Oppiliappan <Oppiliappan>, vanamamalai <Vanamamalai>, divyadesams <> A Peep into Periya ThriuMozhi 105 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 07:21:23 +0530 > > THE GOLDEN BLOOD BATH > > The deeds of the emperumAn is insatiably enjoyable.
