Guest guest Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Paadiyavaal thurai You have built huge ramparts. You have built huge sanctums. You have accomplished the near impossible feat of " borrowing " to use a euphemism, a golden statue from a closely guarded fortress. You then melted it and poured money into metal,stone and mortar for building and repairing temples. You did all these without an iota of self gain.On the top of all these manual works you have composed some of the finest and most extraordinary verses ever written. You were then asked by the pleased King to name your reward for the services rendered. What prize would you ask for? This particular King is actually the King of Kings and He can give you anything in this world and anything beyond this dimension of ours. You definitely wouldn't ask for a cemetry would you? This man did. He requested Him to allot land on the river's edge where proper rituals could be done for the departed devotees.He also demanded that they be liberated from the repeated cycle of rebirths. He was more used to demanding than pleading. He had extorted the sacred eight lettered " ashtakshara mantra " from the Lord Himself on a previous occasion,at knife point. The King told him to pinpoint the area. Our hero unsheathed his famed sword and hurled it about 1000m from where he was standing.Surely it still must be a world record heave, about thousand years later! The sharp pointed weapon landed on the south bank of The Kollidam river, the northern boundary of the famed Bhooloka Vaikuntam, Srirangam. From that time onwards, for more than a millenium the last rites of SriVaishnavas are being conducted there. As the sword, " Vaal " was thrown by one who sang songs, " Paadiyavan " it came to be known as " Paadiyavaal thurai " . It is also well known as " Thirumangaimannan thurai " the quay of Thirumangaimannan. It was our very own Thirumangai Alvar who got this reward for all times, not for himself but for the Lord's devotees, from none other than Periya Perumal, Sri Ranganatha. Here one must turn a bit introspective. Many retired men and their wives come to stay in Srirangam in what they assume to be the evening of their lives. The common perception is that one gets " moksha " if one were to die in Srirangam. This is not true. The only " upaya " means, to " moksha " is the grace of Sriman Narayana and this can be got only by the means of " prapatti " via one's Acharyan. It is totally immaterial where one sheds his or her mortal coil. In spite of this incontrovertible fact many SriVaishnavas prefer to spend their last days in Srirangam. Just because they stay in Srirangam there is no surety that their last rites will be conducted there. That our Lord's grace is essential even for this can be demonstrated by some anecdotes. One exemplary SriVaishnava who retired from Govt. service did " aathmartha kainkarya " intimate service at the temple, Peria Koil, for over thirty years. Like many homes in Srirangam his too was an empty nest. His children had flown away, so to say and he lived with his wife and their combined age was 150+ years! In spite of infirmities of old age the couple lived a contented life under the aegis of SriRanganatha. Mama was to be found at all times in the temple literally shadowing Namperumal the " utsavar " processional deity. He fell ill one day and was treated. The affliction dragged on and in their combined wisdom his offsprings who were stationed in Chennai shifted him there. He became worse, was admitted in the ICU of a five star corporate hospital and reached his acharyan thiruvadi after running a bill of a couple of lakh rupees. His last rites were done in a crowded untidy cemetry in the stinking environs of Chennai. Why did this devout mama not have the good fortune of dying at home in Srirangam and being cremated at " Paadiyavaal thurai " ? Who can question SriRanganatha? Some intrepid soul may ask Him, but no answer will be forthcoming. Elders will blame it on " prarabdha " that devotee's past actions,karma. Here is another anecdote to the contrary. The processional deity, " utsavar " of Srirangam Peria Koil, Namperumal is taken in various " vahanas " literally vehicles, but actually litters or palanquins. One of the most handsome of His " vahanas " is the " karpaga vriksha " . Along with the " Sesha vahana " , the ,five headed serpent litter, the " karpaga vriksha " is in perfect proportion to the size of Namperumal, Azaghia Manavalan - the handsome bridegroom. " Karpaga vriksha " is the famed wish giving tree. Namperumal stations Himself underneath its almost parabolic golden foliage. The real wish giving tree under the so called wish giving tree! The trunk of the tree is entwined by the coils of the five headed Adisesha and actually it is under these hoods that our Lord stands. It is a sight not to be missed. It was a cool misty pre-dawn in early February when we rushed to the temple to experience the " purapaddu " the take off so to say, of the " karpaga vriksha " procession of Namperumal. We hastened to the " vahana mandapa " (the garage!) and were shocked to learn that our Lord would not venture out of the temple into the Uttara streets as some one had expired in the southeast Uttara veedhi. Our Lord was carried in the " karpaga vriksha " vahana inside the temple around the Ranga Vilas mandapa near the main south gate. On enquiry we came to know that some gentleman from Delhi had expired at about 2-3am. As the necessary rituals could be done only after the advent of the relatives from Delhi the body remained there and Namperumal remained inside the huge ramparts of the temple. The cremation took place the next day at " Paadiyavaal thurai " . Here we see that SriRanganatha graced an unknown devotee who had come to Srirangam for the first time from far off Delhi. Why? That will remain forever unanswered. Coming back to " Paadiyavaal thurai " . Till recent times it was in really bad shape. Dirty and uncared for. There were no boundary walls and and four legged scavengers and carrion eaters used to gorge themselves after dark. In spite of repeated requests inimical locals used to purposefully defile the area and tease the SriVaishnavas who were forced to come to that place. In fact till a decade ago it was not used at all. Now things have changed and it has been spruced up and one can conduct the sad affairs without disturbances and interference. The Sri Thirumangai Mannan Charitable Trust, STMCT, has taken up the rehabilitation of this historically and temporally important site in right earnest. It is requested of all enlightened group members to help in whatever manner they can. It is an unpalatable and unfortunately undeniable fact of life that in almost all parts of India the venues where last rites are done are truly disgusting. The environs are not only unhealthy they are dangerous. The dregs of society are to be found there. Alcoholics and drug addicts abound. The workers stationed there are anything but helpful. They are extortionists who surpass even the capos of mafias. Members of our community are ruthlessly blackmailed. Activities are stopped halfway to milk evermore money from the relatives of the deceased. It is particularly heartening that places like " Paadiyavaal thurai " are being renovated. More strength to agencies like STMCT and they deserve all possible help. Adiyen requests group members to send aid to the following address: Cheques and demand drafts drawn in favor of Sri Thirumangai Mannan Charitable Trust may be sent to 23,Rajaji street, Ranga nagar, Srirangam, Trichy 620006 Phone: 0431-2431078; 2433078 stmmtrust www.stmctrust.org Dr.S.Sundar Rajan MS ortho Feb 25 2009 Trichy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 SrI:Dear Sriman Sundar Rajan: adiyEn namaskArams:: Thanks for your information regarding the " Paadiyavaal thurai " which is being taken care by agencies like STMCT.Through this adiyEn came to know about STMCT well before and their generous kaimkaryams in rehabilitating the importantlast ritual site. May Lord Sri Ranganatha Should BLESS THIS PEOPLES to continue their revered kaimkaryams.As you mentioned, shedding one's mortal coils at SriRangam during their latter age is NOT IN ANYWAY LEAD TO PARAMAPADAM. Only the AchAryan's grace and his thiruvadi sampandham could lead to PARAMAPADAM.This could be well judged by our poorvAchAryA's vaibhavamof Sri Periya NambigaL - AchArya of Srimad Ramanujar. Both Sri Periya NambigaL and KooratAzhwan went to the King- Vaishnava dwEshi - KirumikaNda Chozhan - instead of Ramanujar. They argued that Sriman Narayanan is paratattvam,but the unruly king ordered to pluck their eyes. Due to their elder age, Sri Periya NambigaL couldn't able to withstand the painand while on their way to Sri Rangam, Periya NambigaL's bodycondition get worsened further. This made KooratAzhwan to worryfurther and requested Periya NambigaL to move faster so that they could reach SriRangam earlier!But Periya NambigaL refused to move faster to reach SriRangamand said, Sri Rangam DOESN " T GRANTS MOKSHAM, only the AchAryan's thiruvadi could grant mOksham. He was not interested to shed his mortal coil at SriRangam which would set a wrong benchmarkin future that leaving mortal coil at SriRangam would fetch mOksham! He laid his head on KooratAzhwan's lap, and his feet at his daughter'slap, prayed and thought his AchArya Sri ALavandhAr's divine lotus thiruvadiand left to Sri Vaikuntam near Thanjavur!!! (adiyEn forgot the exact place name) This is a well-known vaibhavam of our poorvAcharyar's. Sri Periya NambigaLis not the one who left his mortal coil at a different place from SriRangam,the following could give you more pramANam:1) Thirumangai Azhwar -- His thiruvarasu at THIRU-K-KURUNGUDI 2) Sri NAthamunigal (refer Guruparamparai)3) Pillai lOkAchAryar while his on the way near Madurai, escorting NamperumAL in pallakku during the invasion of muslim king at SriRangamand many more recent AchArya's Sri Lakshmi Nathan thiruvadigalE Saranam::adiyEn,senthil.bOn Mon, Mar 2, 2009 at 6:33 AM, Dr.S.Sundar Rajan <kuresadasan wrote: Paadiyavaal thurai You have built huge ramparts.
