Guest guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 This question has been lingering for a long time in my mind. While we wear Thiruman and it represents the paadam of the Lord. In the temples we also see the same lord in Archai form wearing the Thiruman. How is it is explained ? We also see namperumal without the Thiruman but always with Kasthuri thilagam. The vaishnavite world will be to pleased to hear an explanation on this matter. Dr. R.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I am told that even as we look at the face, we should be reminded of his thiruvaDi and Sree. Thus, we adore ThiruMan and Srichoornam on lord's forehead.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 swamiin I have a small doubt which I hope u will be able to clarify: With due respects to both the vadagalai and thenkalai sects, i seek this clarification. In most of the thenkalai temples, the bhattachariar or the goshti wear the tiruman running upto the nose top. while applying the tiruman, they follow the vadagalai pattern of U while administring the same in the chest / hands / shoulders etc. can someone clarify why this is being done. with due respects to both the kalais RAJARAMAN--- On Thu, 25/6/09, NARASIMHAN RAGUNATHAN <rithimini wrote: NARASIMHAN RAGUNATHAN <rithiminiRE: SAMPRADAYA VISHAYANGAL"divyadesamonline.com" Thursday, 25 June, 2009, 6:34 PM This question has been lingering for a long time in my mind.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 I think the Thenkalai and vadakalai differences pertain to two possible interpretations for the term"naasikaagra". This literally means naasika+agra (nose beginning), because teh shaastram said that the naamam should extend rest on "naasikaagre" (beginning of the nose). Now comes the question as to what marks the beginning/start of the nose. Based on the way nose is formed during embryonic development, it is clear that the Vadakalai people are right to assume which is the beginning of the nose. Also for meditation, one is asked to focus their eyes on bhruvormadhye (between the two eyr brows) or naasikaagram (taht is also actually between the eye brows, if we assume that the nose begins there). The naasikaagram appears not fully fool-proof, because someone may argue taht the nose begins between eye brows or from the other end (tip). However, it is quite clear based on teh two arguments I ahve given that the beginning of the nose is between the eye brows. I must say Vadakalais got it right! Also think o ftemple elephants and the lengths of thitumaN wasted and not onlystratifying the trunk with the Calcium carbonate astringent! When it comes to other parts of the body, it is absolutely fool-proof, because we don't have noses in those regions.
