BUTTER BURGLARY AT PAR WITH GIRL HUNT

 

Sri krshNA went on a robbing spree of butter and was tied to a rope. This 'saulabya' guNam was highly appreciated by AzvAr-s.

 

Next, the Lord indulges in woman hunt/gOpikA hunt in even keel with butter hunt.

 

The womanfolk of the ThiruvAippADi narrate the episodes of losing butter, milk and also girls.

 

Kaliyan talks of this in this unique fourteen pAsuram-s enjoying the pranks of KaNNapirAn.

 

'mAnam vudaithu vungaL ayarkulamadhanAl.." periya thriumozhi 10-7;

 

What can i do? How can i tolerate these pranks , exclaim yasOdhA pirATTi and others.

 

Does this behaviour behove this clan? Neither me nor Sri NandagOpar are able to control this pranks.

 

Unlike Nambi mUtha pirAn this lad goes on a robbing spree but not able to hide that.

He also devours milk meant for making butter.

 

And on the top of it, keeps His countenance innocent.

goes on and on ...
