The Greatness of Guru
Traditionally the Guru is considered an embodiment of the Hindu Trinity Gods namely Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. The word 'Guru' means remover of darkness (In Sanskrit, “Gu” means darkness, “Ru” means remover). Thus, Guru Purnima is the day of eradicating ignorance and illuminating our lives with knowledge. On this Full Moon of the Guru, Friday, July 3rd 2012, the Guru can inspire us to overcome our limitations, even lethargy and conjure a life of wonderful possibilities.Guru Poornami Utsav 2012

Periyapuranam - mUrgga nAyanAr
The pallava kingdom was famous for the scholors. Its capiatal kAnychi was very famous for its institutions which attracted students from throughout bhAratham . In that kingdom on the north bank of the river pAli is the town thiruvERkAdu situated. In that town which is sung in the thEvAram born the mUrgga n^AyanAr. He came in an agricultural family which found its heart and service in the feet of the divine with three eyes.
In his childhood, In his youth, from the day he could think he had the firm faith on the Father of this universe and limitless love for His devotees. The love generally manifests as service. He had the priciple of having his food only after giving feast to the devotees who depend only on the Oldest young God. In the rice that is brighter than the stars, the ghee will flow like the glacier over the mountains. The best vegetables of the town will get added taste when n^AyanAr serves them with care to the devotees. Whatever be the need of the devotees that will be fulfilled once it is noted by the n^AyanAr.
His courtious service with wholehearted love brought a lot of devotees to his house. He continued to offer flawless service to them and spent his entire wealth in that. He was not left with a piece of property. A person renounces the principles he has been following when he is pushed to a situation of continuing trounbles. It is the quality of great persons to stand for their discipline and principle and stands in the history as beacons to save the ships that requires direction. mUrgga n^AyanAr was not worried about loosing the property. For him the property achieved its goal, serving the servants of shiva. But he was very much bothered about the lack of resources for the continuation of his holy job of hosting the devotees. He could not find any other alternative to earn in that town.
He had learnt the techniques of gambling long time before that. In the absence of any other alternative he decided that it is better than not serving the devotees. He started travelling to many towns, anointed the Lord shankara in those towns with the scented water of his heartful love. He stood by his service using the money he got from gambling. He saluted the Lord in thiruvArUr on his way to thirukudan^dhai (kumbakONam) . He considered his victories in the casino of thirukkudan^dhai as the blessings of the Lord and used that money for providing feast to the devotees. He used to loose the first game to encourage the opponent and would win the games that follow and get more money. He was quite strict in following the rules of the game. He won't cheat but if somebody cheats and refuses to pay then he will stab him with a knife. So he was called n^aRchUdhar mUrggar (principled gambler fierce person).
The service for devotees continued with the money from gambling. He won't touch the material till the devotees eat to their satisfaction. He will eat in the last round after all the devotees had their food. This happened then on throughout his life in this world like the relentless tides of the sea. The Artist for whose dance the dhEvAs, gaNAs sing and play, that Lord greeted him in His abode. Let the strong stand of the mUrgga n^AyanAr on his service even in the troubled circumstances stay in the mind.

Periyapuranam - dhaNdiyadigaL nAyanAr
The birth in thiruvArUr is celebrated by chun^dhara mUrthi n^AyanAr for that land fertile for the thoughts on the Destroyer of Three cities, inspires the devotion for that Almighty. In that renowned town dhaNdiyadigaL was born. As if he wanted to meditate only in the Lord shiva who is voidlessly present in his self and not wanted to see other things outside, he was seeing impaired by birth. His bodily sight was impaired but not the ability to see the Truth. He saw the Lord in His love; He saw the service to offer; Hence saw the bliss. For the Lord of thiruvArUr he offered himself. He would salute, circumambulate and sing namach chivAya in the ArUr abode of Attributeless.
The devotee was quite anxious to note that the western tank of the temple was encroached by the Jains. The bad state of that area dedicated for the Destroyer of the daemon chalan^dhara, drew the selfless sincere slaves concern. He wanted to do the service to the society by salvaging the tank. He put a pole in the crater, wound that with a rope to the column on the bank. With the help of the rope he would slowly with struggle come to the tank, dig the sand, and holding the rope dump the sand on the bank - all with the Name of the Lord of the great in his tongue and thoughts. The Jains who occupied the place were irked by the devotee's deeds. They started shouting that it would affect the small creatures living there if he dig. The devotee told that he was doing the service for the Lord with the Moon crown. The occupiers maligned him whether he lost his hearing ability too not to hear the morals. The devotee whose personal impairments were highlighted by the mannerless, replied that he saw the Light though he was blind, but they dwelled in ignorance even while having the sight. What would they do if he gets the sight and they lose it by the grace of the Strange Lord, he added. The Jains replied that they would leave the area if it so happened by his Lord's grace and grabbed away the rope and poles.
The devotee, angry with the blasphemers obstructing his noble service, prostrated in front of the decorated abode of the God of lords and prayed to bless him to come out of the disgrace they did against him. He reached his mutt, lamented and cried over the incompletion of the service and slept in that tiredness itself. The Lord who is love and who is the only hold for the devotees who was delighted with the service the devotee did ignoring his inabilities appeared in his dream. He consoled him that he would get to see and at the same time the senseless obstructors would lose their sight. The Lord came in the kings dream too and told him the disturbances the Jain did to the dhaNdiyadigaL. The king shocked praising the Floral Matted Haired Lord reached the spot. He asked the devotee about the problem. n^AyanAr told him the way they disturbed his service, maligned him, took away the spade, rope and other equipments and their vow that they would not stay in the town if he got the sight and they lost. The king enquired the Jains and they agreed that what he heard was true.
The devotee, king and the hurdle-makers reached the bank of a temple pond. The king requested the devotee to show that he could get the sight by His grace. The devotee said, if I was a true slave to the shaN^kara, I will get the sight and these maligners would lose their sight and it would be proved that the ultimate truth is Lord shiva, and took a dip in the water. The devotee rose up with his eye clearly seeing the things. The Jains were unable to see and started struggling. The king declared the Jains of bad intentions bad. He ordered them to leave the town. The ignorance that was in the thinking now darkening their eye-sight too the intruders ran away falling down and creeping away dropping their mat and materials. The king driving them out saluted the devotee and left. The determined devotee who caught hold of the Feet that are covetable to even brahma and vishNu, completed the sacred task he started. Completing the renovation of that pond, he lived in the enjoyment of chanting the Holy Five Letters and finally resided in the compassionate feet of the Lord. Let the dhaNdiyadigaL n^AyanAr's determination to serve even when he was not able to see and even above that when others disturbed him, stay in the mind.
Periyapuranam - thirumUla n^AyanAr
In the Growing-moon crowned Lord's mount kayilai being the lead of that very ancient abode of Lord showing the righteous path to the vishNu, braHma, indra and others is the n^an^dhi. One of his disciples, vEdhAs learnt sage who attained the eight great achievements beginning from aNimA wanted to visit and stay with sage agasthyar at the podhikai mountains in thamiz land. Worshiping the Lord at kEdhAr the sage praised the pashupati at Nepal. He reached the banks of the holy river ga.nga which as a small stream falls from His vast matted Hair glittering like the lightning. Bathing in the river he saluted the Lord's avimuththam abode and proceeded towards the South. Saluting the shrishailam of sha.nkara, he reached thirukkALaththi. Praising the enchanting Everlasting Lord at thirukkALaththi entered His dancing field Alavanam and bowed down to His raised foot. He came to kAnychi worshipping Lord EkAmbaranAthar. Involving in discussions with the yOga munis of that city he left in his journey and bowed down to the Black-throated Mercy at thiruvadhikai. He arrived in the Master of Dance's thillai. With his heart brimming with love he saw the dance of the Golden Beauty that acts making the matters to exist. Staying and saluting the Lord there for some time he came to the banks of river kAviri.
Bathing in the chill refreshing water of river kAviri he went into the Lord's abode AvaduthuRai. The yOgi praised in undiminishing love the Lord of pashus there. In spite of a feeling of not leaving that holy place emerging strongly he went out of the town continuing his journey towards podhikai. But in a short distance he saw the cows crying on the Cauvery bank. mUlan a herdsman who used to take care of the cows of the village chAththanUr died when he brought the cowherds for grazing on the banks of the river. The cows out of their affection for their herdsman went around his body smelling him, licking him and crying. The yOgi who told the world that Love is Lord shiva felt he would remove their suffering by His grace. Realizing that only if mUlan came alive the cows would get consoled, he, a splendid sidhdha fortified his body and introduced his soul into the body of the herdsman through air. He rose as thirumUlar. The cows relieved of their gloom licked him in joy, went around happily grazing on the riverbanks. The merciful n^AyanAr safeguarded them till they grazed enough and returned after drinking water from the river. As the sun red in the heat went to have a dip in the ocean the cows thinking of their calves started walking back towards the village. The sage who showed a supreme path to the world calmly followed them to chAththanUr.
He waited till all the cows entered their respective houses. Wife of the herdsman mUlan saw him delaying to enter the house. Anxiously she went to touch him, but he refused saying there was no relation between them and went into a common mutt. The lady who had no offspring or relatives could not sleep throughout the night. She cried and lamented to the elderly people of the town about his new behavior. Those people of well analyzing capacity told the girl that he was neither mad nor had he any other association. He staying beyond the skewedness of mind, in the crystal clear shivayOga, in the height of glory unmeasurable for any human would not fit into relationship she had, they advised her. The sage thirumUla n^AyanAr in such a wonderful state got up and returned the way he came following the cowherd. The sage could not find the body he had kept it safe. He realized through his vision of spiritual wisdom that it was God's grace that way in order to give in thamiz through his words the supreme AgamAs that the Cool-matted haired Lord gave for this world to follow and get enlightened. He explained to the relatives who continued behind him the non-continuation of the bonds. After they all left thinking the holy feet of the Lord of Bull flag n^AyanAr went with great enthusiasm to salute the Supreme at thiruvAvaduthuRai. Sitting under the shade of arachu tree in ultimate shivayOgam he gave the holy thiruman^dhiram (1) a marvelous medicine for the illness of incarnation. Starting from 'onRavan thAnE' he completed the thamiz garland of three thousand flowers for the Lord who charmingly wears the horn of the boar. Staying on this earth for those three thousand years, a blessed time for the upbringing of humankind he reached in non-separation the holy feet of the Almighty. Let the coveted wisdom of shiva yOga of thirumUla n^AyanAr stay in the mind.
Periyapuranam - EyarkOn kalikkama Nayanar
In the chOza kingdom renowned for its fertility, is the town thirup peru maN^galam green with fields, white with flags displaying fertility. Seen with huge crowds that show to Heaven how better the latter could be more happy chanting the holy names of the Eldest Lord, that town appeared like the abode of Lord shiva. In that bright town born the brilliant general of the state army by name kalikkAmar in the tradition of Eyar . Ornated with the glittering gem of affection for that Almighty, he served the devotees of that sweet Stain-throated Lord with pleasing modesty. He did excellent services to the Lord - Giver of refuge, taken abode in the town thiruppunkUr .
The devotee chun^dharar perumAn (1) never used to plead to anybody but asked only the Lord - the Giver of Self, everything he wanted. For him the Lord went as messenger to his wife paravaiyAr . Hearing that chun^dharar without any fear sent the Lord as a messenger to a girl, the devotee EyarkOn kalikkAmar who propitiated the Lord in all his feelings with peeking love and adoration, was appalled, felt hurt, lamented and furied. "What a slavery is this where the slave commands the Master ! That is for consoling a girl ! What a sin, even after hearing this unbearable deed I am not dead ! Even if the Lord who was unexplorable even to vishNu and brahma was ready how was he not hesitant to ask for such an favor?! What will happen if I ever happen to see him ?", he blasted. He was not able to digest the happening. His love was so great that it was pricking as thorns the way the softer than flower feet of the Lord walked in the streets of thiruvArUr in a night between chun^dharar and paravaiyAr's homes. He wanted an answer to this. He pleaded to the Lord all these everyday.
God who was dipped in the delicacies of the two different but both unparalleled great love of chun^dharar and EyarkOn, wanted to show to EyarkOn the sincerity in the love and slavery of chun^dharar. He made the painful chUlai disease to appear in EyakOn's stomach. With the pain poking like the head of the spear he held the feet of the Dancing marvel and cried. The Lord said that it could not be cured by anybody other than chun^dharar. He screamed, "Oh Lord, while we for so many generations trust only on you, depend only on you, worship you as the only Master, somebody who asked you to work for him is going to heal this illness ! What a pity ! If that is the case than getting cured by him it is better if it tortures me." "Oh Graceful ! You made it sure that the position of chun^dharar is right !", he lamented. The Lord obscured Himself to him and went to chun^dharar and asked him to cure the chUlai of EyarkOn. Saluting the Lord obediently chun^dharar sent message to EyarkOn and started to his place.
EyarkOn who was pain-ridden in the stomach, frustrated by the Lord's words heard with gloom that chun^dharar was coming to cure him. He did not want him to heal his painful disease. Rather he decided before chun^dharar could come there he would pierce and cut his own stomach that had the sinful chUlai disease. He took the sword and cut his stomach apart bringing the life to end and curing the chUlai ! His loving wife who had very great respect for the devotees was about to sacrifice herself along with her husband but then heard that chun^dharar had reached at their residence. Serving the devotees was the highest priority even in her pain stricken mind. That exclaimable woman asked others not to cry or show any sign of what happened, hid the body of her beloved husband and went to welcome the saint with all good omans. Accepting their warm welcome with a smiling face chun^dharar perumAn went inside the house and sat. Accepting their salutations he conveyed his anxiety and eagerness to cure the painful disease of the devotee EyarkOn. On the order of that great lady the people there told him that EyarkOn was alright and was sleeping inside. But chun^dharar insisted that at least to satisfy his self he should see EyarkOn. Unable to persuade they took him to show the EyarkOn who was floating in the flood of blood.
The true devotee chun^dharar who had immense adoration for the Lord and His devotees due to which he reiterated in most of the hymns that he was the slave of the slave of the slaves of the gaN^gadharan, was stricken with gloom on seeing the devotees body and determination. He raised the dagger to sacrifice himself too. At that moment by the act of that Merciful Master, EyarkOn got life, rose to stop chun^dharar - now realizing his real flawless love. chun^dharar fell on EyarkOn's feet prostrating him. EyarkOn kalikkAmar fell on his feet. The world wondered and praised this marvel. Who can command the Omniscient for whom the earth became the chariot, the Sun and Moon the wheels of it, the mountain the bow, the Lord of protection the arrow and the entire dEva crowd in His service, but burnt the three daemons just by His smile ! It was because of the untainted wholesome ever-flowing love of chun^dharar that the Lord out of His mercy went as a messenger. His grace is unlimited ! His name be hailed !
Out of the feeling of very good friendship the two devotees hugged each other, went and praised the Wet-matted-haired Lord of thiruppunkUr. chun^dharar sang with all devotion the song an^dhaNALan praising the grace that the Lord showed and mentioned the greatness of EyarkOn in it. Then for some days there were together in thiruvArUr worshiping the Mighty in the ant-hill. Later EyarkOn 'alikkAmar returned back to his town to perform his wonderful services and resided finally under the cool feet of the Lord who comes on the red eyed Bull. Let the caring love and adoration for the Golden-bodied Lord that EyarkOn kalikkAmar perumAn had stay in the mind.
NOTE:
cundharar thEvAram at thiruppunkUr also gives one more detail about this great devotee. EyarkOn kalikkAmar donated grand amount of land in the service of God, in an occasion when there was drought to get rains for the benefit of the people. When it rained it really flooded out. (Probably God thought for the request of this devotee things should be given without any "holding back" ! Then kalikkAmar gave another 12 vEli measure of land to Lord shiva praying to avoid the flooding due to excess rain. God enjoying his offering, blessed so.
