I want to add a few words to Krishna's moving description. I experienced the
enactment of Nammazhwar's Moksham for the first time. The entire event was
overwhelming. Not being conversant with Tamil, I felt very helpless because
I could only feel the vibrations and impact of the chantings but I had only
an incomplete idea of the literal meaning. Just at that time, a kind person
lent me a book that had the English transliteration in it -- which I read
when the priests were preparing for the portion of the enactment where we
asked for our Acharya to be returned to us. That and some explanations that
I got from my friend Krishnaprasad really put me in a trance that I will
never forget.
All in all, the 3 days event was well attended. I had the opportuity to meet
and talk to many mahanubhavas whose names I see on the bhakti list (like
Anbil Swamy, Nagu Satyan, etc.). What a great group of people. I am sure more
devotees would come if each of us who was there can bring one or two new
people to this event next year.
Congratulations toeveryone who made this happen.
