Guest guest Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 nAnum sonnEAn namarum vuraimin namOA nArAyaNamEA In sharp contrast to the regiments of rAvaNA (which comprised of elephants,horses, chariots and men) Sri RAmA's army had the forest bear, monkeys and their clan as the fighting force. However, this dedicated regiment made the opponent face defeat and Sri rAmA inflicted humilation on the rAvaNA's regiments. This is recalled by thriumangai AzhwAr and he prescribes the thirunAmam of the Lord to one and all. He had been talking of several things in the pre-vaishNavic days. This is a sweet thirunAmam, good for one and all. A good thing can be shared by all. It is said that joy should be multiplied. Hence, he invites everyone to recite this thirunAmam. And the thirunAmam is 'namOA nArAyaNamEA" .This is the staple diet for AzhwAr-s and this is the thirunAmam found in AzhwAr gOshti. 'kANa eNgum -kurangum-musuvum paDaiyA-adalarakkar manam azhithu ninRA venRiyammAn, enakkenRum thEanum pAlum amduhdumAya thirumAl thirunAmam nAnum sonnEan namarum vuraimin namOA nArAyaNamEa" 6-10-6; nAnum sonnEan namarum vuraimin namOA nArAyaNamEa dAsan vanamamalai padmanabhan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
