Sri Azhagiya Singar Brahmothsavam – Hanumantha Vahanam.
Today 22nd
June 2013 is the 5th day of Aani Brahmothsavam at Thiruvallikkeni
for Azhagiya Singar. In the morning it
was ‘Nachiyar Thirukolam’ and in the evening it was ‘Siriya Thiruvadi – Hanumantha vahanam’….. remember Lord Rama fought the battle sitting astride
Hanumar.
The son of
Vayu – Hanumar is the epitome of great virtues. He had physical power, vast
knowledge, strong will power, concentration, commitment, and vast capability of
deliverance. The very thought of Sri Hanuman brings to mind
~ his unparalleled devotion for Lord Ram and unrivalled physical strength.
Perhaps this is one reason why Hanuman is quite often associated with
celibates, wrestlers and bodybuilders.
When Sukriva
offered to help Lord Rama in search of Sita devi, there were thousands of
Vanarars in his Sena ~ there were old, wise, powerful, youthful, and all others
– yet it was Hanuman who was preferred to go to Lanka; the wise Zambavan
praised his qualities and encouraged him to jump across the Ocean ~ He
accomplished the task manfully and tested the strength of the forces of Lanka
too… such was his wisdom and power of accomplishment. Even Sitadevi nursed a doubt when she stated
that only three had the power of crossing the mighty Ocean ~ the son of
Vainetheyan [Periya Thiruvadi Garudar known for his power of flying]; Lord Vayu
and the most wise Hanuman – she wondered how the vast multitude in the Sena of
Sukriva could cross the Ocean ?
Aanjaneyar
with all his might still always
exhibited the rare qualities of kindness, humility, and deep attachment to Lord
Rama. The selfless spirit of Hanuman
was rewarded by Lord Ram by stating that ‘whenever I am remembered,
people will remember you too.’
Sri Thelliya
Singar in His resplendent splendour enraptured His devotees with darshan
on ‘HanumanthaVahanam’ which was a great sight to behold…….. and it
rained during the purappadu…
Adiyen
Srinivasa dhasan.
