Thank You

First and foremost, we thank Sri Andal and Sri Ranga Mannar for making us complete this blog without any hindrance. Next, we sincerely thank all our readers for reading this blog. Without our readers we wouldn’t have completed these 30 days successfully. Also, because of readers like you, we were able to do one good thing as said in Thiruppavai. Andal said “seyyathana seyyom, theekuralai sendrothom” and we were kind of in constant thinking about the Supreme God uninterruptedly for all these days, which generally gets disturbed while we carry on with our daily routines. By this constant engagement as Andal says the everlasting relationship between God and us, we neither thought about any unwanted things nor talked about any bad things. We are really so happy that this Margazhi we have all been able to celebrate together. Please apologize for the errors and omissions that might have occurred in this blog. Those errors and omissions are all on us. We don't have any clue as to what we are going to do next Margazhi or whether we will under God's blessings be able to keep up whatever we have learnt through Andal and this Thiruppavai. But whatever we do,we are sure that, we will have all your support. Once again, we thank you all so much for being with us this Margazhi.

We also take this opportunity to thank Sangeetha M who wrote English poems.  Sangeetha hails from North India and does not know to read or write tamil. It's very amazing that ,with no insight of Vaishnava philosophy, she grasped Godhai and the essence of Thiruppavai.   This version she has just garlanded with a little introduction in English.

This is a snippet we had prepared from the closing statements from Velukkudi Swami's Thiruppavai Upanyasam. In this he mentions about not being afraid or being shy of talking about what we know about Bhagavan to Bhagavadhaas, accurate or not. As long as it is about Him from the heart, He loves to listen to His Bhaagavathaas speak His glories like we enjoy "mazhalai" of babies. We are in fact all babies when it comes to understanding Bhagavadh Vishayam .

कायेन वाचा मनसेन्द्रियैर्वा बुद्ध्यात्मना वा प्रकृतेः स्वभावात् /

करोमि यद्यत् सकलं परस्मै नारायणायेति समर्पयामि //
Kaayena vacha manasendriyairva buddhyatmana va prakrite swabhavath |

Karoomi yadyad sakalam parasmai Narayanayeti samarpayami ||

(Whatever I do with my mind, body, speech or with other senses of my body,
or with my intellect or with my innate natural tendencies, I offer everything to Narayana)
