perumizalaik kuRumba nAyanAr
Surrounded with the fields where the bunches of bananas sleep
on the green leaf bed sheets is the town perumizalai in the
mizalai kingdom. The town was rich with people whose knowledge of the
Truth brought chastity to their hearts, which was the reflection of the
white Holy Ash on their forehead. The head of the town peru mizalaik
kuRumbanAr was the head of devotion and slave of the slaves of
Matted haired Lord. The man of exclaimable wisdom utilized his
knowledge in serving the servants of the Serpent clad shankara even
when they did not explicitly ask for it. He was looking forward to
serve them; It was the pleasure he was looking for; it was his prime
duty. The two feet of the Lord that are softer then the petals of the
rose resided on the lotus of his heart enjoying the fragrance of his
love.
Host of many admirable characters he hosted the devotees of
the Lord holding Dreadful axe, providing them limitless food and
wealth. Still he was humble and pleasant to those unattached devotees.
The selfless ceaseless service introduced him to the great devotee who
asks everything only to the God, sun^dhara mUrthi n^AyanAr(1).
Knowing that it is the association with the good that evolves into the
liberation, he held that great devotee in his thoughts whose thoughts
always pondered around the paramEshwar. Following that
splendid devotee he attained the eight great powers. For him above all
those powers were the peerless Holy five letters and chanting them
with the tears of joy rolling down raising up the devotion. His love,
yoga and service continued unperturbably.
Meanwhile the slave of the Beautiful Lord, sun^dhara mUrthi
n^AyanAr went to the capital of chEra kingdom koduN^gOLUr
ruled by chEramAn perumAL n^AyanAr(2). sun^dharar by
the splendid blessings of the Lord of thiruvanychaikkaLam,
got the white elephant to come to the Lord's abode thirukkayilai
. The great perumizalaik kuRumba n^AyanAr who had wonderable
spiritual vision and wisdom felt this great event in his heart. When
his eyelike sun^dharar perumAn is proceeding to the great Mount, he
did not want to stay on the earth. He wanted to reach that blissful
place that day itself by yOga. With the four karaNam
s coming together in absoluteness of good knowledge, the air
proceeding strictly in the brahma n^Adi to the center of the
skull, with the secret door opening there, n^AyanAr reached ahead the
thirukkayilai to reside in the Eternal feet of the Lord shiva.
Let the splendid yogic wisdom of the perumizalaik kuRumba n^AyanAr,
got by serving the Lord and Its devotees stay in the mind.
