regarding 16 wealths in navaneethan June issue

[Guest guest]

Dear Mr.John,

 

In Tamilnadu when any person is blessing, he/she would bless saying " pathinarum

petru peru vazvu vazga " . roughly translating to " live a great life with

possession of all 16 wealths " ! As you said the piece may be part of Abirami

Thudhi, I am not sure of it.

 

These 16 types are wealth are described as a poem at an Appar Kovil at

Tirunallur.The poem is sung by Appar, one of the great poets of Tamil and is

dedicated for Abirami.

 

A poem by Kalamega Pulavar gives the list of

the 16 boons that would render a blessed life.

 

" thudhi vaaNi viiram visayam sandhaanam thuNivu dhanam

madhi dhaaniyam saubaaggiyam bOgam - aRivu alzhagu

pudhidhaam perumai aRam kulam nOvagal pUN vayadhu

padhinaaRu pERum tharuvaay Madhuraip ParaaparanE! "

 

Regards

 

Balagopal
