  1. திருக்கண்டேன் பொன்மேனி கண்டேன் திகழும்
    அருக்கன் அணி நிறமும் கண்டேன் செருக்கினரும்
    பொன்னாழி கண்டேன் புரிச்சங்கம் கைக்கண்டேன்
    என்னாழி வண்ணன்பால் இன்று
    (திரு-மகாலட்சுமி,அருக்கன் -சூரியன், ஆழி-சக்கரம் )

    இது பேயாழ்வாரின் பாசுரம் லக்ஷ்மி சமேதராக மகாவிஷ்ணுவை பார்த்தவுடன் .
    மிக்க நன்றி

  3. Very good. Please keep it up. After this maybe you can think of a series on Durga. The various temples of Devi and the renowned Shakthi Peeths across the country.

  4. Why cant you give more information? I request Parthasarathiji to give complete meaning of the poems since my two daughters do not know much Tamil. But they are very much into Bhakti.
