ThiruvallikkENi and Mylapore

After seeing Vaidehi's post I wanted to post a

pasuram about Parthasarathi perumaaL.

Here is one from periya thiru mozhi (2.3.9).

 

\bt

meen amar poigai naaN malar koyvaan

vEtkaiyinOdu senRizhintha

kaanamar vEzham kaiyeduth alaRa

karaa athan kaalinaik kathuva

aanaiyin thuyaram theerap puLLoornthu

senRu ninRu aazhi thottaanai

thEnamar sOlai maada maamayilai

thiruvallikkENi kaNdEnE.

\et

 

The urai by Sri Uttamoor Veeraraghava chari brings

out two interesting points, I think.

 

(1) 'puLLoornthu senRu ninRu aazhi thottaanai'

 

Here, in his haste to save GajEndran, perumaaL

was too fast for Cakkarathaazhvaar. PerumaaL

had to stop and wait (senRu ninRu) for 'aazhi'

to catch up with Him.

 

 

(2) 'maada maamayilai thiruvallikkENi'

 

ThiruvallikkENi was part of present day

Mylapore!

 

 

The story of Gajendran has interesting interpretation.

It is my understanding that we as Sri Vaishnavaas must

think of Gajenthraazhvaar's story each morning as we get

out of our beds.

 

 

 

Regards,
