Divine Playfulness-1 (Thiruvilayadal-1)
1.Indra Obsolved of his Sin



During the Kretha Yuga ,Devendran was engrossed in sensual delights of song,dance and dalliance with women in his paradise.Because of these engagements,he failed to respect the Devaguru (Vyazha bagawan).This neglect resulted in the Devaguru's departure from the place ;as a consequence the prosperity dwindled and famine threatened.

Indra  could not find his Guru.He went to Brahma Deva who advised him to adopt Viswaroopan,son of the Asura Guru Thuvatta.Indra requested Viswaroopan to perform a sacrifice (Yaga)for his sake.What he uttered and what he willed inwardly were different.The utterence was voiced as ''Let the Devas prosper'',but inwardly his intended desire was Asuras to prosper and Devas to famish  .Indra sensed this through his divine intuition .So he clipped three of his (Viswaroopan's) heads which became the birds 'kadai' ,'kuruvi' , 'sichili' and flew off.This is a heinous act and a sin (hatti)to be expiated.The Devas are said to have freed him from the sin by distributing it over trees,oli,water,and women.The news of the killing of Viswaroopan reached his father .He was seized with uncontrollable fury.He performed a yaga and created a huge heartless monster 'Vridhra sooran' from the yaga.Thuvattu commanded him to kill Indra .Indra was defeated in the battle .Later,with the weapon made from the backbone given by Thatheesi,he went to war with Vridhra sooran who hid in the sea as though performing penance.


On Indra's request Sage Agasthya drained the sea by drinking it off .Vridhra sooran was exposed and was beheaded ,and his blood filled the ocean.Again,Indra was seized by a sin of Brahmahatti.

As advised by Vyazha Bagawan ,he came to earth and went on pilgrimage to Thirukadavoor,Kasi,Kanchi and reached Kadamba forest (Kadambavanam)where he constructed a dome and worshipped Lord Somasundarar ecstatically and was released from the sins.

Then he returned to heaven with Indrani and ruled thereafter,Thus worshipping Lord Somasundaram at Madurai,he was absolved of all his sins.

The four towered koodal -Thiruvilayadal -19

The Four Towered Koodal  (Thiruvilayadal -19) Varunan was furious that his attempt had failed,he called the seven clouds and commanded them to suck all the water and pour them on Madurai with thunder. As the thunder clouds roared the gems on the head of Adhiseshan spilled ;the four elephants which guarded the direction trembled ;rain drops fell in the size of pumpkin ;darknes enguifed the earth.  Abisheka Pandian went to the temple and appealed to the lord .Lord Shiva sent four clouds from his braided  crest to surround Madurai and cover it protectively to ward off the seven destructive clouds .They became the four towers of Madurai. Varuna was ashamed of his powerlessness and went to the tank of  the golden lotus.Then his stomach ailment subsided. After dipping into the tank he worshipped the Lord thanking him for curing  his ailment .He also wanted to be cured of the ailment of cycle of birth due to karma and impurities . Because of...
