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.

Kambathadi Mandapam--1 (Sree Meenakshi Temple)

Kambathadi Mandapam (Sree Meenakshi Temple) Perhaps the most beautiful places of architecture of Sree Meenakhi Temple are found in teh kambathadi mandapam in the outer prakaram in front of the idol of Lord Sundareswarar,Each one of these pieces is so fine that one cannot but appreciate it,The artistic heart will simply merge with these master pieces. The various features of God are graphically ,depicted on the eight black stone  pillars around the Nandhi mandapam ,Bali peedam (alter for offerings a Thiruvatchi frame of lamps)and the Golden flag post. Sree Meenakhi's wedding scene  is found on one of these pillar.The majestic appearance of the bridegroom (Lord Siva) the shyness and the sweet smile expressed in the eyes and lips of the bride (sree Meenakshi)and the manner in which Lord Vishnu give away the bride are very realistic. On all the four sides of each pillar we find admirable artistic work,on the pillar having the wedding scene the figures...

In such a gratitude they did not even notice the slipping of the clothes from their waists.The sculpture  has showed  a superb skill in making these statues .The statue of Lord Bikshadanar also exhibits the inordinate efficiency of the artist.There is a statue of a saint of  the Tharuga forest.There is also a statue of Mohini (the Lady who throws charm).The idols of Ganesha and Subramania also ...
