Hanuman Gadha !!

 

In the great Ithihasa purana Ramayanam -  Sri Hanuman is the epitome of unwavering devotion  and unstinted   service to Bhagwan Shri Rama. Aanjaneya  surrendered his mind, body and soul to Rama and stands out as the best example for the self-less devotion.  His compassion to the devotees of Sri Ram cannot be described merely in words.  

 

Anjaneya is a great warrior too and holds a grand Gadha which annihilates rivals.  The gada (  गदा  /  గద /  கதை)  is a mallet or blunt mace.  Made either of wood or mostly of strong  metal, it consists essentially of a spherical head mounted on a shaft, with a spike on the top.

 


Emperuman Sriman Narayana too  carries a gada named Kaumodaki in one of his four hands. In the epic Mahabharata, the fighters Balarama, Duryodhana, Bhima, Karna, Salliya,  Jarasandha are some who were masters of the gada.  By some accounts, Hanuman’s gada is also – Koumothaki, gifted to him by Kubera.

ఎంత ముద్దో ఎంత సొగసో - enta muddO enta sogasO

 

ఎంత ముద్దో ఎంత సొగసో - enta muddO enta sogasO

ఎవరి వల్ల వర్ణింప తగునే - evari valla varNimpa tagunE

எவ்வளவு கவர்ச்சியோ, எவ்வளவு ஒயிலோ!

எவரால் வருணிக்க இயலுமோ!

 

At Thiruvallikkeni Divyadesam – the grand Chithirai Brahmothsavam is now on and on 15.4.2025 it was day 3.  Morning it was Garuda Sevai, followed by Ekantha sevai and in the evening it was Hamsa vahana purappadu.

Daily in the evening Emperuman has a grand celebration known as Pathi Ula, in which He is carried to the vahana mandapam in a unique celebrity fashion, has Unjal and enters vahana mantap in Oyyali.  During the pathi ulavuthal, there are vidwans performing and today it was grand Nadaswaram rendition.

Browsing is a type of herbivory in which a herbivore  feeds on leaves, soft shoots, or fruits of high-growing, generally woody plants such as shrubs.  This is contrasted with grazing, usually associated with animals feeding on grass or other lower vegetations. Alternatively, grazers are animals eating mainly grass, and browsers are animals eating mainly non-grasses, which include both woody and herbaceous dicots. In either case, an example of this dichotomy are goats (which are primarily browsers) and sheep (which are primarily grazers).

For intellectual humans, browsing is a kind of orienting strategy. It is supposed to identify something of relevance for the browsing organism. In context of humans, it is a metaphor taken from the animal kingdom. It is used, for example, about people browsing open shelves in libraries, window shopping, or browsing databases or the Internet.  In library and information science, it is an important subject, both purely theoretically and as applied science aiming at designing interfaces which support browsing activities for the user.

Browsing is often understood as a random activity. Dictionary.com, for example, has this definition: "to glance at random through a book, magazine, etc.".  However Browsing would include   activity that is governed by our metatheories. We may dynamically change our theories and conceptions but when we browse, the activity is governed by the interests, conceptions, priorities and metatheories that we have at that time. Therefore, browsing is not totally random.

Browsing - என்பதை உலாவுதல் என கொள்ளலாம். "உலாவுதல்" என்பது தமிழில் ஒரு வினைச்சொல் (verb). இது "சுற்றுதல்," "இயங்குதல்," "பவனி வருதல்" போன்ற சொற்களால் குறிக்கப்படலாம். மேலும், "தேடுதல்", "வழிசெலுத்துதல்" போன்ற பொருள்களையும் குறிக்கலாம்.

பத்தி உலா :   பெருமாள் உலா வருதலே பத்தி உலாவுதல்.  பத்தி என்பது வரிசையைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல். வகுப்பைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல். செய்தித்தாள் முதலியவற்றின் நீளவாட்டுப்பகுதியைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்.  தமிழில் இச்சொல்லுக்கு பலவிதமான அர்த்தங்கள் உள்ளன :  தூண்களின் இடைவெளி;  யானையின் நடை வகையைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்; கடவுளிடம்   பற்றைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்;  வழிபாட்டைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்; ஒழுக்கத்தைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்; ஒரு தேரையும் ஒரு யானையையும் மூன்று குதிரைகளையும் ஐந்து காலாட்களையும் கொண்ட சிறிய படைப் பிரிவைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்; நம்பிக்கையைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல்; அன்பைக் குறிப்பதற்குப் பயன்படும் சொல் - என புதுப்புது அர்த்தங்கள் நீள்கின்றன. 

For sure Carnatic connoisseurs have heard "enta muddo’ ,  one of the famous Telugu keerthanais of Thiyagarajar.   Saint Thiyagaraja (Thiyagayya)  saw the reigns of four kings of Maratha dynasty but served none of them.  He was so fond of Sree Rama that his keerthanas exude bakthi rasam of the highest order.   Here is another rendition of the keerthanai during Sri Parthasarathi Emperuman Pathi ula.:  https://youtu.be/rlY2MoDRFSs



In this kRti ‘enta muddo’ – rAga bindumAlini (tALa Adi), Thiyiagayya  pities people who fall for lust without knowing the beauty of the Lord.  He praises the Lord to be most charming and elegant and people are not capable of describing his beauty.  No matter who are how great people are, would often become besieged by thoughts of lust and when one is a slave to lust, they pretend to be devotees.  He compares the jug knowing the taste of milk …  urges people to come out of such lust and fall at the feet of Lord.

Triplicane Kolangal - Sri Ramkumar

 

Uthsavams are festivities ~ at Thiruvallikkeni divyadesam, there are so many Uthsavams and purappadus.  Primordial among them is the 10 day long annual  Brahmothsavam.



The streets are clean and tidy – before every purappadu – beautiful kolams are drawn.  Kolam (கோலம்) is a form drawn by using rice flour.  Theoretically, it is a geometrical line drawing composed of curved loops, drawn around a grid pattern of dots – in effect, they are passionately put on the street as offering to Lord. 

There are some women who  put up kolams so nicely with passion and devotion .. .. .. and there are some MEN too !!

Not many would have observed Mr Ramkumar Ramesh – a silent, sincere devotee, who takes videos in mobile .. .. he is doing is PG (M.Com) and from Mylapore comes for darshan.

Was surprised at his eloquence and speed with which he is drawing this kolam .. at South Tank Sq Street for Garuda vahana purappadu this morning.

"Vishwavasu" Tamil New Year 2025 wishes !!

 

*அனைவருக்கும் இனிய விசுவாவசு  தமிழ் புத்தாண்டு நல்வாழ்த்துக்கள் !*

 


The Krodhi year has gone - Vishwavasu has come; and, people are happy – today is Tamil Varusha pirappy [New Year]. Well, how many Krodhis have gone and how many Vishwavasus have come, since the years were named and even before that, how many centuries and millennia have elapsed in the history of mankind !!! 

          On April 23  1905 – German General Lothar von Trotha commander of troops in Germany's colony of Südwestafrika (modern-day Namibia), ordered the extermination of the Nama people within the colony's borders, ultimately killing 10,000.  Von Trotha's proclamation Aan de oorlogvorende Namastamme, proclaimed that "The Nama who chooses not to surrender and lets himself be seen in German territory will be shot, until all are exterminated." 

Year 1905 was  marked by significant political and social upheavals, notably the Russian Revolution, the Russo-Japanese War, and the Partition of Bengal. The year also saw advancements in science, with Albert Einstein publishing groundbreaking papers on special relativity and other topics.   1905 journal article, by Albert Einstein, proved the reality of atoms, the modern understanding of which had been proposed in 1808 by John Dalton. It is one of the four groundbreaking papers Einstein published in 1905, in Annalen der Physik, in his miracle year. 

The first Partition of Bengal (1905) was a territorial reorganization of the Bengal Presidency implemented by the authorities of the British Raj. The reorganization separated the largely Muslim eastern areas from the largely Hindu western areas. Announced on 16 October 1905 by Lord Curzon, then Viceroy of India, and implemented West Bengal for Hindus and East Bengal for Muslims, it was undone a mere six years later. The Partition was aimed for administration purposes but in fact is treated as divide and rule policy and further agitated people, who perceived that it was a deliberate attempt to divide the Bengal Presidency on religious grounds, with a Muslim majority in the east and a Hindu majority in the west, thereby weakening the nationalist cause.  The Hindus of West Bengal complained that the division would make them a minority in a province that would incorporate the province of Bihar and Orissa. Hindus were outraged at this "divide and rule" policy.   To appease Bengali sentiment, Bengal was reunited by King George V in 1911, in response to the Swadeshi movement's riots in protest against the policy. The Bengal division supremacy plot was planned by lord Curzon. This was done primarily for administrative purposes but also to weaken the growing Indian Nationalist Movement.  

Years later in 1965 occurred – ‘The Indo-Pakistani war’ - an armed conflict between Pakistan and India that took place from August 1965 to September 1965. The conflict began following Pakistan's unsuccessful Operation Gibraltar,  which was designed to infiltrate forces into Jammu and Kashmir to precipitate an insurgency against Indian rule.  The seventeen day war caused thousands of casualties on both sides and witnessed the largest engagement of armoured vehicles and the largest tank battle since World War II. Hostilities between the two countries ended after a ceasefire was declared through UNSC Resolution 211 following a diplomatic intervention by the Soviet Union and the United States, and the subsequent issuance of the Tashkent Declaration.  Much of the war was fought by the countries' land forces in Kashmir and along the border between India and Pakistan. This war saw the largest amassing of troops in Kashmir since the Partition of India in 1947, a number that was overshadowed only during the 2001–2002 military standoff between India and Pakistan.   

In Feb 1965 in a drawn test between India and New Zealand at Corporation stadium, the famed Off spinner Srinivasan Venkatraghavan debuted alongside  Terry Jarvis and Vic Pollard.  That was to be the last test played at Corporation stadium as subsequent tests are played at Chepauk Stadium.  

In case you are wondering reading about happenings of 1905 & 1965 – both were Vishwavasu Tamil years (actually that would have been  Apr 1905- Mar 06 & Apr 1965- Mar 66.  The term “Samvatsara” is a Sanskrit word for ‘year’ in the Vedic literature. It roughly means a period of one full year when the Sun enters the sign of Aries. Some astrologers define it as the time in which Brihaspati (planet Jupiter) with its average speed crosses the journey of one zodiac sign and moves on to the next. According to this definition, when Jupiter completes the entire circle of traversing all 12 zodiac signs, it comprises 12 Samvatsaras. During the entire journey, Jupiter is either close by or far from planet Earth based on which it creates positive or negative influences for an individual. The Hindu calendar has a cycle of 60 years long and is named from Prabhava to Kshaya. Every year, the new Hindu year begins at the end of April. Prabhava corresponds to the Christian year 1987 in the current cycle. 

In the ‘Vaivasvatha Manvantharam, after passage of 27 Maha Yugas ~ now in the 28th Mahayuga – after passage of 3 Yugas ~ in the Kali Yuga – after passage of 4 lakh 28 thousands of years –  the birth of year  Kali  5126  Salivahana Saha  1947 –  Pasali 1434 – Kollam 1200 - Chithirai 1  -   Swathi, Dwidiyai  day  (14.4.2025) …… should go the lengthy introduction exactly describing today ~ birth of Viswavasu   New Year this day ! 

A few years ago the  birth of Sarvari Tamil New year in some ways was unheralded – a very different one – Covid19 threatening the entire World.  People were asked not  to be on the streets, Temples closed for bakthas and that way  - all that is a thing of the past, most humans have forgotten that there was Covid 19 !!!!

 

இன்று தமிழ் புத்தாண்டு.  சித்திரை முதல் நாள் வருட பிறப்பாக கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது. இது கதிரவன் நகர்ச்சியை அடிப்படையாகக் கொண்டது. இம்முறையின்படி, சூரியன் ஒவ்வொரு இராசியிலும் புகும்போது 12 தமிழ் மாதங்கள் பிறப்பதாகக் கொள்ளப்படுகிறது. காலக்கணிப்பு முறையின்படி ஒரு ஆண்டுக்குரிய பன்னிரெண்டு மாதங்களில் சித்திரை முதலாவது மாதமாகும். தமிழ் மாதங்கள் பூமிக்குச் சார்பாகத் தோற்றுகின்ற சூரியனுடைய இயக்கத்தை அடிப்படையாக வைத்தே இம் மாதங்கள் கணிக்கப்படுகின்றன. இதனால் இவை சூரிய மாதங்கள் எனப்படுகின்றன. 

வருஷ பிறப்பு என்பது மகிழ்ச்சிக்குரிய ஒரு சிறந்த நாள் ஆகும். புத்தாடை அணிந்து கோவில்களுக்கு சென்று வழிபாட்டு வீட்டில் உள்ள பெரியவர்களிடம் ஆசி வாங்கி சந்தோஷத்துடன் இருக்கும் நாள். இன்று வடை திருக்கண்ணமுதுடன் விருந்து உண்பர். வேப்பம்பூ பச்சடி தவறாமல் இடம் பெறும். இன்பம், துன்பம், வெற்றி, தோல்வி, கசப்பு, இனிப்பு கலந்துள்ள இந்த வாழ்க்கையை தைரியமாக எதிர்கொள்ள வேண்டும் என்ற தத்துவத்தை வேப்பம்பூ பச்சடி வெளிப்படுத்துவதாக ஐதீகம் உள்ளது. 

ஆறுபது ஆண்டுகளுக்கு முன் வந்துவிட்டுப்போன விசுவாவசு வருடம்  இன்று புத்தாண்டுக் கோலமணிந்து மீண்டும் வருகை தருகிறது. இரண்டு தலைமுறைகள் கழிந்துவிட்ட நிலையில் அன்றைய வாழ்க்கை மற்றும் நிகழ்வுகளை நினைவுகூர்ந்தால் சுவையாகவும் சிறிது வியப்பாகவும் கூட இருக்கலாம்.இன்று 14.4.2025  இனிய தமிழ் புத்தாண்டு ~ பேயாழ்வார் தமிழ் தலைவர் .. ..  திருவல்லிக்கேணி திவ்ய தலம்  வங்க கடல் ஓரத்தில் அமைந்துள்ளது.  கடலில் அலைகள் ஆர்ப்பரிக்கும் !  அலைகள்  கடற்கரையை நோக்கி ஓடோடி வரும்போது தாழ்ந்து வீசுவது இயல்பு  ~ இங்கே தமது மனத்தே  சயனித்திருக்கும் எம்பெருமானை தமது மூன்றாம் திருவந்ததியில் போற்றிப் புகழ்கின்றார் நம் ஆழ்வார்.

 



பணிந்துயர்ந்த பெளவப் படுதிரைகள் மோத,

பணிந்த பணிமணிகளாலே - அணிந்து, அங்கு

அனந்தனணைக்கிடக்கும் அம்மான், அடியேன்

மனந்தனணைக்கிடக்கும் வந்து. ~ மூன்றாம் திருவந்தாதி

 

கடலில் அலை வீசும்போது தாழ்ந்தும் வீசுவது இயல்பாதலால் ‘பணிந்துயர்ந்த எனப்பட்டது ! கடலிலுண்டான அலைகளானவை, தாழ்ந்தும் எரிந்தும் அலை மோதுகின்றன !  நாலு பக்கமும் அடிக்க  பணிந்த அத்திவலைகள் திருமேனியில் படாதபடி குடை பிடித்தாற்போலே கவிந்திருக்கிற, மணிகளாலே, மாணிக்கங்களினாலே  அலங்கரிக்கப்பட்டிருக்கிற  திருவனந்தாழ்வானாகிற  ஆதிசேஷன் அணையாம் மெத்தையில் சயனித்து, திருக்கண் வளர்ந்தளாகிற ஸர்வேச்வரன் (அந்தப் படுக்கையிற் பொருந்தாதே) அங்கு நின்றும்,  வந்து புறப்பட்டுவந்தும்  அடியேனுடைய மனமாகிற படுக்கையில்  சயனித்திரா நின்றான்.

 


Every Tamil New year, there would be periya mada veethi purappadu of Sri Parthasarathi Emperuman;  now being the time of Chithirai Brahmothsavam and today being day there was Sesha vahana purappadu of Sri Parthasarathi perumal purappadu this morning at Thiruvallikkeni divaydesam.  Here is a photo of Seshavahana purappadu and some photos of Emperuman from earlier times.

Sri Parthasarathi Perumal pathi ula - Punnaikilai vahanam 2025

 


Sri Parthasarathi Perumal pathi ula - Punnaikilai vahanam

यतो धर्मस्ततो जयः || ~ Sri Parthasarathi Brahmothsavam 2025 - Dharmathipeedam

Sri Parthasarathi Brahmothsavam 2025 - Dharmathipeedam



Sri Parthasarathi Perumal Chithirai Brahmothsavam   started at Thiruvallikkeni divaydesam this morning.  On day 1 morning it is Dharmathipeedam – one of the oldest vahanams dating back almost 125  years - -as could be seen from the inscription – this vahanam dates back to Kali subakruth varusham 5004 Chithirai masam – the present year is Visuwavasu   Kali 5126 (from tomorrow) – so two full 60 years + 2  have rolled by since its samarpanam.  

Sri Vaishnavism dwells on principles of Dharma – our purpose of life is to do dharma, kainkaryam to Emperuman and His devotees.  The concept of Dharma or law in ancient India was inspired by the Vedas which contained rules of conduct and rites and compiled in Dharma Sutras, were practiced in a number of branches of the Vedic schools. Their principal contents address the duties of people at various stages of life, the rights and duties of the kings and juridical matters. These were basis of Hindu Law. The earliest document throwing light on the theory of jurisprudence, which forms part of practical governance, is the Artha Sastra of Kautilya dating back to circa 300 B.C. The third chapter deals with Vyavahara i.e. transactions between two or more parties or Vivada or disputation 

Dharma in Hinduism, is an organizing principle that applies to human beings in solitude, in their interaction with human beings and nature, as well as between inanimate objects, to all of cosmos and its parts. It refers to the order and customs which make life and universe possible, and includes behaviors, rituals, rules that govern society, and ethics. Hindu dharma includes the religious duties, moral rights and duties of each individual, as well as behaviors that enable social order, right conduct, and those that are virtuous. Dharma is that which all existing beings must accept and respect to sustain harmony and order in the world. It is neither the act nor the result, but the natural laws that guide the act and create the result to prevent chaos in the world 






Yato Dharmastato Jayah ( यतो धर्मस्ततो जयः யதோ தர்மஸ்ததோ ஜய:)   is an all important a Sanskrit shloka that occurs a total of 13 times in the Hindu epic,  the Mahabharata. It means "Where there is Dharma, there will be Victory".  

राजन्सत्त्वमयो ह्येष तमोरागविवर्जितः |

यतः कृष्णस्ततो धर्मो यतो धर्मस्ततो जयः ||

6.62.34 (Bhīma to Duryodhana) 

O King! He is the embodiment of truth, devoid of any shadows of darkness or passion. Wherever Kṛṣṇa resides, there abides Dharma. Where there is Dharma there is victory. 

This is the motto of Supreme Court of India too.  The Dharma chakra logo of the Apex Court of the Nation has the wheel that appears on the abacus of the Sarnath Lion capital of Ashoka with 32 spokes. The inscription in Sanskrit “yatodharmastato jayah” means – Truth alone I uphold. It is also referred to - as the wheel of righteousness, encompassing truth, goodness and equity. 

The Muthalazhwargal (Pogai alwar, Boothathalwar and Peyalwar) met at Thirukovalur.... Poigai azhwar started singing the greatness of the Lord by lighting the Earth itself as the light and Ocean as the ghee...  he tells us :... ... எம்பெருமானை தங்கள் மனசார அனுபவித்து ஆசையாய் தங்கள் வார்த்தைகள் உரைத்தவர்கள் ஆழ்வார்கள்.  ஸ்ரீமன் நாராயணின் பக்தர்களுக்கு இதோ பொய்கைப்பிரான் காட்டும் எளிய வழி : 

நன்றுபிணிமூப்புக் கையகற்றி நான்கூழி,

நின்று நிலமுழுதும் ஆண்டாலும்,- என்றும்

விடலாழி நெஞ்சமே வேண்டினேன் கண்டாய்,

அடலாழி கொண்டான்  மாட்டன்பு.  (முதல் திருவந்தாதி) 

வாழும் காலத்தில் வியாதியையும், கிழத்தனத்தையும் - இவற்றைப்பற்றிய கவலைகளையும், நன்றாக தொலைந்தொழியும்படி  நல்வாழ்க்கை பெற்றாலும், காலமுள்ள வரையிலும் ஸ்திரமாக இருந்து நிலம் முழுதும் ஆண்டாலும் - நாம் செய்ய வேண்டியது எல்லாம்  அண்டஜஸ்வர்யங்கள்  எல்லாவற்றையும் தனதாகப்பெற்ற  திருவாழியைக் கையிலேந்திய பெருமானிடத்தில்  என்றென்றும் சார்ந்து இருக்க, அவ்வெம்பெருமானிடத்திலே  ஆழ்ந்திருக்கிற நெஞ்சை  வேண்டுவோமாக.  !

Poigai alwar – directs the heart thus – diseases during life time are common; ageing and senility is certain – even if one is to live long long years and rule the Earth – we should always think of the Emperuman who has the discuss (Thiruvazhi) in His hand – it is eternally  blissful to have a mind deeply devoted to His lotus feet. 

Here are some photos of morning purappadu of Sri Parthasarathi Perumal   at Thiruvallikkeni divyadesam – dwajarohanam took place after purappadu.
