[Guest guest]

Sri:Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama: Thirukkolur Ammal Varththaigal (Thirukkolur Penpillai Rahasyam) 16. yAn sathyam enREnO krushNanaip pOlE It is said by our Purvacharyas that the truth spoken by Sri Rama and the faleshoods uttered by Sri Krishna are our refuge.However, in this statement by Thirukkolur Ammal it is shown that Sri Krishna too spoke only the truth. Just as Sri Ramawas described as "rAmo vigrahavAn dharma:" so too Krishnacan be described as "sanAtana dharma". In his deathbed, whenquestioned by Yudishtra, Sri Bheeshma pointed to Sri Krishnaas dharma personified. Krishna's words uttered for the protection of His devotees,may appear like falsehoods, but they are not. When He went asthe messenger for the Pandavas, Draupadi asked that He helpher take her revenge on the Kauravas. At that time,

Krishnastated that "The sky might fall down; the Earth may crumble;the Himalayas may break down into pieces; the oceans maybecome dry; even if all these improbable things were to cometrue, my words will never be falsified".Sanjaya too calls Krishna as truth personified.When Uththarai's son was born lifeless like a black woodenpiece, due to Ashvaththama's arrow, a voice was heard statingthat if one who is a true brahmachari and a speaker of nothing but truth were to touch the baby, he would gain life.When no one stepped forward, Krishna did. With the touch ofHis divine lotus feet, the kid came alive.His words are always true. This is what is being established by Thirukkolur Ammal.
