Thiruvilayadal-13 .Drying up of the sea by the spear

Drying up of the sea by the spear (Thiruvilayadal-13)




Ugrakumar ruled in accordance with the Royal dharma.He performed 90 aswametha yagas .Indra was jealous of him and asked Varuna to destroy the fertility of the land .''you will become the ocean that destroys the seven worlds at the end of time,and destroy Madurai''.Varuna decided to obey.Accordingly Varuna rose in fury at mid-night .But Lord Shiva appeared in the dream of Ugrakumar as a siddha and asked him to dry-up the furious sea by throwing his spear  at it.


Ugrakumar woke up and carried out the command .And the ocean reduced itself to ankle deep level.Then Lord Shiva and Uma appeared on the bull in the sky on the bull mount and blessed him. Ugrakumar sang and worshipped him.

Thiruvilayadal -16 Meaning of He Vedas

Thiruvilayadal-16 .Meaning of He Vedas During the Kreta Yuga ,the Pranavas sprang from the voice of Shiva;The Vedas sprang from pranava ,Sages like Kanva and Kakkar in the Naimisa forest were despaired about the meaning of the Vedas .Sage Arabattar guided them to go to Lord Somasundara of Madurai on the south of the temple seated as Dhakshina murthy .He alone knew the substance of the vedas. All the sages reached Madurai and worshipped Dhakshinamurthy who appeared like a youth of 16.He removed their doubts and explained the meaning of the vedas .He took the sages to the sivalingam and said that that form was the meaning of Vedas .Vedas were not different from Sivalingam .Then he expounded the origin of Pranavam ,the vedas and the Agamas,Gnana kandam ,Karma kandam,Vaithegam,Vaithega saivam.He then stroked their spines with his hand and disappeared into the Sivalinga.

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...
