=================================
Dear all,
Sivaayanamaha
As before we are now able to think a GreatSaintNayanamaar by name
thirumUla n^AyanAr
He had be4en considere to have lived on this globe extending to a tenure of
3000years,His extraordinary spritual Qualification brought him to show the
mankind with 3000 songs of 4 lines each during his earthily life.Each of such
song narrated an yearlong experience had in this world leading to give uslots of
thoughts and a trasparent meaning.

His writing is adorned as Paththaam THirumurai called as Thirumandiram itself.
In the Growing-moon crowned Lord's mount kayilai being the lead of that very
ancient abode of Lord showing the righteous path to the vishNu, braHma, indra
and others is the n^an^dhi. One of his disciples, vEdhAs learnt sage who
attained the eight great achievements beginning from aNimA wanted to visit and
stay with sage agasthyar at the podhikai mountains in thamiz land. Worshiping
the Lord at kEdhAr the sage praised the pashupati at Nepal. He reached the banks
of the holy river ga.nga which as a small stream falls from His vast matted Hair
glittering like the lightning. Bathing in the river he saluted the Lord's
avimuththam abode and proceeded towards the South. Saluting the shrishailam of
sha.nkara, he reached thirukkALaththi. Praising the enchanting Everlasting Lord
at thirukkALaththi entered His dancing field Alavanam and bowed down to His
raised foot. He came to kAnychi worshipping Lord EkAmbaranAthar. Involving in
discussions with the yOga munis of that city he left in his journey and bowed
down to the Black-throated Mercy at thiruvadhikai. He arrived in the Master of
Dance's thillai. With his heart brimming with love he saw the dance of the
Golden Beauty that acts making the matters to exist. Staying and saluting the
Lord there for some time he came to the banks of river kAviri.

Bathing in the chill refreshing water of river kAviri he went into the Lord's
abode AvaduthuRai. The yOgi praised in undiminishing love the Lord of pashus
there. In spite of a feeling of not leaving that holy place emerging strongly he
went out of the town continuing his journey towards podhikai. But in a short
distance he saw the cows crying on the Cauvery bank. mUlan a herdsman who used
to take care of the cows of the village chAththanUr died when he brought the
cowherds for grazing on the banks of the river. The cows out of their affection
for their herdsman went around his body smelling him, licking him and crying.
The yOgi who told the world that Love is Lord shiva felt he would remove their
suffering by His grace. Realizing that only if mUlan came alive the cows would
get consoled, he, a splendid sidhdha fortified his body and introduced his soul
into the body of the herdsman through air. He rose as thirumUlar. The cows
relieved of their gloom licked him in joy, went around happily grazing on the
riverbanks. The merciful n^AyanAr safeguarded them till they grazed enough and
returned after drinking water from the river. As the sun red in the heat went to
have a dip in the ocean the cows thinking of their calves started walking back
towards the village. The sage who showed a supreme path to the world calmly
followed them to chAththanUr.

He waited till all the cows entered their respective houses. Wife of the
herdsman mUlan saw him delaying to enter the house. Anxiously she went to touch
him, but he refused saying there was no relation between them and went into a
common mutt. The lady who had no offspring or relatives could not sleep
throughout the night. She cried and lamented to the elderly people of the town
about his new behavior. Those people of well analyzing capacity told the girl
that he was neither mad nor had he any other association. He staying beyond the
skewedness of mind, in the crystal clear shivayOga, in the height of glory
unmeasurable for any human would not fit into relationship she had, they advised
her. The sage thirumUla n^AyanAr in such a wonderful state got up and returned
the way he came following the cowherd. The sage could not find the body he had
kept it safe. He realized through his vision of spiritual wisdom that it was
God's grace that way in order to give in thamiz through his words the supreme
AgamAs that the Cool-matted haired Lord gave for this world to follow and get
enlightened. He explained to the relatives who continued behind him the
non-continuation of the bonds. After they all left thinking the holy feet of the
Lord of Bull flag n^AyanAr went with great enthusiasm to salute the Supreme at
thiruvAvaduthuRai. Sitting under the shade of arachu tree in ultimate shivayOgam
he gave the holy thiruman^dhiram (1) a marvelous medicine for the illness of
incarnation. Starting from 'onRavan thAnE' he completed the thamiz garland of
three thousand flowers for the Lord who charmingly wears the horn of the boar.
Staying on this earth for those three thousand years, a blessed time for the
upbringing of humankind he reached in non-separation the holy feet of the
Almighty. Let the coveted wisdom of shiva yOga of thirumUla n^AyanAr stay in the
mind.
