Guest guest Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 THE MANI-PRAVALAM STYLE The ManiprAvaLa style of commentary is unique to our commentaries. Proficient, in both sanskrit and tamil, our pUrvAchAryas deemed it best to coin the words in both the languages freely mixing the same. This gave the listeners/readers teremondous experience. The sentences were not just tamil or merely sanskrit, they were both resulting in a unique langauge -the maNi-p-pravALam. From NampiLLai EDu avathArikai for TiruvAimozhii Mudhal SriyappadhipI-mAHA PravEsam "SriyappadhiyAi avApth samastha kAmanAi samastha kalyANa guNAthmaganAna sarvesvaran, 'mARi mARi pala piRappum piRandhu' engiRa padiyEa janma parpaparaigaLil thOL mARi, nithya samsAriyAi pOndha ivarai, 'adiyai adaindhu vuLLam thEARi ERil inbathiruveLLam yAn mUgzhinan enRu..' It may be noted that the first line is samskritham, second tamil, third and fourth line mixed. From PeriyavAchAn piLLai ThirunedunthANdakam avathArikai: AzvAr Tirumangai AzvAr AgiRAr 'venRiyEA vEANdi vEzh porutkirangi vEaRkaNAr kalaviyEa karudhi" enRu- sarvesvaran viBhUdhiadaiya ivar thudaikkuk kEzhE kidakkiRadhOA enRu, sangikka vEANdumpadi adisayathAhankArarAi... The first line is tamil and then it is again mixed.
