I have
been posting about the serene Thavana Uthsavam that is underway at
Thiruvallikkeni Divyadesam. On all the 3 days of Thavanothsavam, Sri Azhagiya
Singar has different sarruppadi [Thirukolams] – today 21st Mar 2014
is day 2 of the Uthsavam and Sri Azhagiya Singar blessed us as ‘Murali Kannan’ –
the flautist.
Lord
Narasimha manifests anger – the righteous anger of killing Hiranyakasipu for
the same of His devotee Prahalada and for saving humanity……. Lord is graceful
and extremely caring for His devotees… even after slaying the demon, great
sages meditated to HIM and at Ghatikachalam,
He gives us all the pleasant Yogic posture … so also at Thiruvallikkeni –
where the Moolavar is Yoga Narasimhar.
The
Uthsavar is blemishless, most beautiful Thelliya Singar ~ Azhagiya Singar – a mere
darshan will cure us of all our sins and will provide us all goodthings
aplenty. The beauty of Lord Narasimha is aptly
described by Thirumazhisai Piran in ‘Naanmukhan Thiruvanthathi’ :
அழகியான்
தானே அரியுருவன் தானே*
பழகியான்
தாளே பணிமின் -*குழவியாய்த்
தானேழுலகுக்கும்
தன்மைக்கும் தன்மையனே*
மீனாயுயிரளிக்கும்
வித்து.
Here Azhwar
describes His various forms – from Mathsya [the fish] to Lion headed Narasimha
~ the same Lord is the one who is matchless in beauty, the pure substance of
every thing and protector of all souls… falling at His feet will provide us
everything and He would take care of us.

are some photos taken during today’s purappadu
and a photo (above) taken during Sri Azhagiya Singar brahmothsavam to enable your appreciating the sarruppadi
