SrI:

AdiyEn read the mail regarding chitran 'chiru kAlE' 
and would like to share whatever sprang up from
adiyEn's 'Mandha Buddhi'.

By 'chiru kAlE' KOdhA piRAtti should be alluding to
the early morning. If you look at the paasuram ..

chitran chiru kAlE vandhunnai sEvithhu
un pottrAmarai adiyE pOtrum pOruzh kELAi
petramaithunnum kulathil pirandhum nee ....

'un pottrAmarai adiyE' clearly indicates that chiru
kAlE must be the 'Early morning'. Also petramaithunnum
kulathil pirandum nee --- addresses to Govindan which
will not fit in properly if you interpret chiru kAlE
as His lotus feet.

Further we never call His lotus feet as 'kAl' but
rather as Thiruvadi or 'adi' etc. 'kAl' usually will
be used for ordinary people and not for Azhwars,
Acharyas and Emperuman and His divine consorts.
