Trivia for today:

1. The versatile poet that Parakalan is - uses the number game today in Thiru-Ezhu-kootrirukkai, using numbers in the pasuram that goes from 1-7 and 7-1 forming a 'Ther' (ratham) with Lord SarangapaNi at the center. This one prabhandam is completely dedicated to the Lord of Thirukudanthai.

2. The 2 madal's by Kaliyan again bring out his outpouring of defamation against Perumal as an ode. If you need to remember Divyadesams either one of the madals take you through a 20 sec tour.3. One of the most important of Swami Desikan's prabhandham Artha Panchakam as the name implies is about 5 doctrines a prapannan should know. It is again set to Lord Varadarajan of Kanchi. Kanchi is the only kshetram in south india capable of granting moksham (tongue in cheek comment) declared by Swami Desikan as 'mutthi tharum nagarEzhil' (among 7 places)... again observe the number seven here that Thirumangai mannan devoted a prabhandam to.
