I have a question for the group.
Today morning I was reading tthe Perumal Thirumozhi. In pasuram 5,
Kulasekhara perumal sings:
\bt
iNaiyillA innisai yAzhkezhumi
thumburuvum n^Arathanum iRainchi yEththa
thuNaiyillAth thenmaRain^ool thOththiraththAl
thonmalarkkaN ayanvaNangi yOvAthEththa
\et
In line 3 he mentions thenmaRain^ool and goes on to say that brahma sings it
uninterruptedly!
What we now understand as thenmaRai n^ool is the 4000 divyaprabhandham
which includes periya thirumozhi. What was he referring to, then?
I am ignorant about the relative periods of Kulasekharar and Nammazhwar.
Is he referring to thiruvay mozhi? or that of the muthal azhwargal?
Thanks for any insight.
