Thiruvilayadal -15 The Meru beaten with Chendu (weapon)

Thiruvilayadal -15. The Meru beaten with chendu




Ugrakumar Pandian was performing Monday austerities  (somavara) regularly and as instructed by Sage Agasthiyar and his wife Kanthimathi bore him a child ,Veerapandian .Again because of improper planetary movements ,famine resulted and the people suffered greatly.

Lord Somasundarar appeared in Pandian's dream and said that it was not possible to get the rains now .So ,he must go to the cave in Maha meru which contain inexhaustible wealth .He had to tame the arrogance of Meru by beating it with a Chendu.

Waking up,Ugrapandian accordingly with the four branches of his army challenged Meru.Meru was
lethargic .So he beat the Meru with the chendu .Meru trembled and its temples exploded .The Meru with eight shoulders and four heads and white umbrella bowed down  to the Pandian.He said to the Pandian that he used to worship Lord Somasundara and Goddess Meenakshi regularly .But because of his attachment to a woman ,he went late to worship .So he was punished with chendu .How he would requite Pandian for having removed his sins by beating him with chendu.

Ugrapandian told him that he had come for gold .He showed a golden chamber under the shade of a mango tree and asked him to take as much as he wanted .Ugrapandian took a great lot of gold and returned to Madurai.On his return ,the kings of madhyam,viradam.manavam,telungam met him and lavishly honoured him and entertained him.


With the wealth gained ,Pandian helped restore happiness to his people .Soon  planetary movements were orderly .Rains blessed the lands which became prosperous .Then Ugrapandian crowned his son veerapandian and attained to the feet of God.

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...
