Vadinen Vaadi Varunthinen Thirumangai's first paasuram

வாடினேன் வாடி வருந்தினேன் மனத்தால்
பெருந்துயர் இடும்பையில் பிறந்து
கூடினேன் கூடி இளையவர் தம்மோடு
அவர் தரும் கலவியே கருதி

ஓடினேன் ஓடி உய்வது ஓர் பொருளால்
உணர்வெனும் பெரும் பதம் திரிந்து
நாடினேன் நாடி நான் கண்டுகொண்டேன்
நாராயண என்னும் நாமம்- Periya Thirumozhi (948)


This was the first Paasuram after Thirumangai Mannan became Thirumangai Azhvaar. Having way laid Lord Ranganatha in a disguised form in Veda Rajapuram near Thiruvali- Thirunagari, Thirumangai had darshan of the Lord and Goddess in a Kalyana Kolam.

It is then that he reveals how he finally has come of age after having gone through the desires of life.

He says, that his wavering mind wandered everywhere but today after his darshan of Lord he has realised that uttering the name of Narayana is the ultimate solution to all our problems

We recently visited Kumbakonam and worshipped at various Perumal and Siva temples in and around the town. I checked out your earlier posts before departing and they proved to be of immense benefit. Keep up the good work.

When we hear Kaliyan's paasurams, it produces ekkam for Him. Such a midukkan,baliyan,nilan takes 180 deg turn by Him. They only make us cry. dasi.

வாடினேன் வாடி வருந்தினேன் மனத்தால் என்ற பாசுரத்தில்
வரும் அவர் தரும் கல்வியே கருதி என்றுஎன்று அச்சு பிழை உள்ளது
அது கலவியே கருதி என்று திருத்தவும்
நன்றி தங்கள் பணி தொடர வாழ்த்துக்கள்
