The Greatest God of Justice Flag
திருஞானசம்பந்தர் - திருக்கடைக்காப்பு
தலம் : பொது
பண் : கௌசிகம்
மூன்றாம் திருமுறை.
திருச்சிற்றம்பலம்
அற்றன்றி அந்தண் மதுரைத் தொகை யாக்கினானுந்
தெற்றென்ற தெய்வந் தெளியார் கரைக்கோலை தெண்ணீர்ப்
பற்றின்றிப் பாங்கெதிர் வினூரவும் பண்பு நோக்கில்
பெற்றொன் றுயர்த்த பெருமான் பெருமானு மன்றே.

Meaning:
Not just that, those who cannot quickly comprehend
the God Who made the numbers (by being the first)
at the saN^gam in madhurai, as compared
theirs this leaf (having thiruppAsuram) without
hindrance moves against the current upstream !
Isn't the Great Lord Who raised the bull flag,
the greatest God ?!
Notes:
1. So far (upto this song in thiruppAcuram)
cambandhar established through the logic and
scriptures the glory of Lord shiva to the pANDiya
emperor. In this song he establishes the
pratyaksha pramANa (ocular evidence) by showing
the palm leaf that goes against the current of
the river by the Grace of Lord shiva.
2. Jains not accepting the failure to cure
pANDiya king, also lost their face in the fire
challenge. They vowed a do or die in the water
test. The leafs they put on the vaigai river
were all washed away by the current, while the
leaf written by sambandhar having "vAzga an^dhaNar"
went upstream and reached thiruvEDakam ! Isn't
that glory the Glory of Lord shiva, sambandhar
asks. The Lord Who raised the flag of justice
is the Great Lord !
2. This song documents the event that the leaf
went upstream on the river. So sambandhar had put
the first song of thiruppAsuram on the river and
the rest were told to ninRachIr neDumARan as
the words of wisdom while the leaf was continuing
upstream.
3. aRRam - shame; paRRu - hold; pAN^gu - craftily;
peRRam - bull.
