Guest guest Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Sri:Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama: Thirukkolur Ammal Varththaigal (Thirukkolur Penpillai Rahasyam) 30. kadiththu avanaik kaNdEnO thirumangaiyAr pOlE Thirumangai Azhvar wanted to marry the beautiful KumudavalliNachchiyar. She demanded that he prove his worth by feedingthe devotees of Sriman Narayana every day. He spent all hiswealth on that. After running out of funds, wishing to continue the service, he became a highway thief and used thestolen money for this purpose. In order to shower their grace on Azhvar, the Lord and His divine consort dressed themselves as a newly-wed young couple and wearing many ornaments appeared in front of Azhvar at a place called Thirumanangkollai. Azhvar stoppedthem with a sword in hand and demanded all their jewelry.When it came to a ring worn on the feet of the Lord, hewas unable to take it off. So, Azhvar used his teeth tobite the ring and take it off His feet. Then he put them all together into a sack and tried to pickit up, but it was too heavy for him. So, he demanded theLord to tell him what mantra He had used to make it thatheavy (Azhvar was wondering if such a slender young ladcould carry these jewels on Him, why the strong Azhvar wasunable to lift them). When he threatened the Lord with asword, He spoke the great Thirumantra in Azhvar's ears. That opened Azhvar's inner eyes and he truly saw the Lord.He became Thirumangai Azhvar in that moment and began singing the magnificent "vAdinEn" pasuram. Thirukkolur Ammal is asking "Did I get the opportunity toattain His grace by biting Him like Thirumangai Azhvar did?"
