========================
SIR,
Sivaayanamah
please note that
SaintKazarSingaNaayanar Gurupooja falls on 9th Jun2010.A brief life
sketch is furnished.
The king turned Nayanmaars devotion toShiva through an other Nayanmaar
namly Cheruththunai Nayanmaar makes one to thrill on the happenings
A real lesson for us on how to submit ourselves to Shivaa as well as how
carefully we should handle pooja materials before dedicatng.

kazaRchiNga nAyanAr
In the pallava kingdom came this Nayanmaar and the king who ruled in
neutral mind-set, by name kazaRsinger . The only thing that he aimed
for was the foot of Lord shiva, the ultimate wealth. Valiant and
vigorous he got victories over the Northern kingdoms. The Lion that
roared at the battlefields went to the mind-pleasing abodes of the
auspicious God that are widespread in the land in all humbleness and
devotion. The Lord who is never won was master. The king came to the
famous abode of the Lord thiruvArUr. Escorted by the queen and the
courtmen, he came to the temple of the Lord who wanders in the forests
with a huge army happily dancing and chanting. n^AyanAr lost himself in
the blessed sight of the Rare Gem that sits in that abode. The queen
went circumambulating the temple seeing the beauties of it. She arrived
at the hall where the flowers are joined into garlands to be offered to
the Lord who has lily, jasmine, bilvam, maththam in His decorated
matted hair. There was one fresh flower that had fallen from the hall
dais where the garlands are made. She took the flower that was brought
to adorn the Lord and smelt it.

cheRuththuNai n^AyanAr(1) who had dedicated his life in the service
of the Supreme Lord and who served the Lord in an error-free manner,
was annoyed at seeing a human smelling the fresh flower that was
specifically brought for the worship of the Supreme God. She had taken
the flower from the dais and smelt it, he thought. Irked at the queen
who defaulted the discipline, the fearless devotee not bothering whether
it was a queen or a normal citizen he cut down the nose that smelt the
flower. The queen fell down and cried like a peacock rolling down. By
then the king kazarchiN^ga n^AyanAr came there after saluting the Lord
of thiruvArUr. The king saw the queen screaming in pain. Who in this
world dared to do such an atrocity, he thundered. chEruththuNai n^ayanAr
came there and explained what had happened. The king with an upright
royal stick that was not bent for relatives, said that the punishment
was not complete. He took his sword and slained the slender hands of
the queen that took the flower. There was a rain of flowers
appreciating his justice. The king ruled long keeping in mind the holy
feet of the Lord of Justice. He resided under that sacred feet with the
praise of the world. Let the impartiality and devotion of kazarchiN^ga
n^AyanAr stay in the mind.
