Thiruppavai and Divyadesams

by Sri PB Annangarachariar Swami

 

Pasuram: Anru IvvulagamAnubhavam: Govardhana Anubhavam

 

In this pasuram, the phrase "kunRu kudaiyAeduththAy! guNam pORRi!" ("கà¯à®©à¯à®±à¯

கà¯à®Ÿà¯ˆà®¯à®¾ எடà¯à®¤à¯à®¤à®¾à®¯à¯! கà¯à®£à®®à¯ போறà¯à®±à®¿!")

is to be taken as key. Andal is performing

mangalshasanam to the event of Sri Krishna

lifting the Govardhana mountain.

 

The pasuram of Periyazhvar "kodiyERu senthAmaraik kaiviralgaL kOlamum azhindhilavAdiRRila, vadivERu thiruvugir nondhumila maNivaNNan malaiyumOr sampiradhamகொடியேற௠செநà¯à®¤à®¾à®®à®°à¯ˆà®•à¯ கைவிரலà¯à®•à®³à¯

(Periyazhvar Thirumozhi 3-5-10) should be studied here.

 

When Sri Krishna stopped the Yadavas from performing a puja to Indra, He used the Veda vakhyam "yO vai svAm dEvatAmadhiyajatE prasvAyai dEvatAyai shyavatE na parAm prApnOtipApIyAn bhavatiயோ வை ஸà¯à®µà®¾à®®à¯

தேவதாமதியஜதே பà¯à®° ஸà¯à®µà®¾à®¯à¯ˆ

Second Khanda Fifth Prashna). Swami Desikan

as written this as a shloka in his Yadavadhbudya.

That too should be studied.

 

Thus, the lifting of the Govardhana mountainis experienced in this pasuram.
