काञ्ची ३ जगद्गुरु श्री-सर्वज्ञात्मेन्द्र सरस्वती आराधना #२३८७

Observed on Kr̥ṣṇa-Caturdaśī tithi of Vaiśākhaḥ (lunar) month (Aparāhṇaḥ/vyaapti). The event occurred in 2738 (Kali era).

This Sarvajñātman, who was born to Vardhana got initiated into asceticism even before the age of seven by Śrī Śaṅkara himself on being delighted to have had debate with him on the banks of river Tāmraparṇi; he spent seventy years along with Sureśvara in that Pīṭha and then lived in that Maṭha for forty two years. The sage known as Sarvajña attained union with his own Self by doing service at the lotus feet of Śrī Padmapāda, who was dear to the Ācārya (Śrī Śaṅkara) and imparting the unparallel doctrine through Cinmudrā to the saint by name Brahmasvarūpa who served with love and faith at the feet of the master who was holding the pontiff-dom of the Dvāravatī maṭha. The sage Sarvajñātman whose works such as Saṁkṣepaśārīraka showed clearly/elaborately the collective meaning of the words hidden in the great commentatorial works on Advaita merged in the Supreme on the fourteenth day of the dark fortnight in the month of Vaiśākha in the Nala year of the Kali era 2737 at Kāñci Śrī Śaṅkara Maṭha.

कऴऱ्चिङ्ग नायऩ्मार् (५३) गुरुपूजै

Observed on Apabharaṇī nakshatra of Vr̥ṣabhaḥ (sidereal solar) month (Prātaḥ/paraviddha).

Between the 6th and 9th centuries, in South India, there existed 63 ardent devotees of Lord Shiva, collectively known as the Nayanmars. These devout individuals, hailing from various walks of life including potters, fishermen, farmers, merchants, priests, hunters, and washermen, created devotional songs still sung by followers around the globe. Among these Nayanmars, Appar, Sambandar, and Sundarar, known for their Thevaram hymns, along with Manikkavasagar, are distinguished as the Samayacharyas or the ‘The Four’ (ta:nālvar) revered teachers of the faith. They were instrumental in promoting the Shaiva Siddhanta philosophy and culture, effectively challenging the spread of Jainism and Buddhism. Their teachings centered around the concept that Shiva embodies love, and that embracing love for all beings and existence is essential in connecting with Shiva, the Supreme Being.

Kazharsinga Nayanmar, a devout follower of Lord Shiva and a Pallava king from the Kadavar lineage, was instrumental in spreading Shaivism by conquering northern kingdoms. During one of his many pilgrimages, he visited the Tiruvarur temple with his queen. While circumambulating the temple, the queen unintentionally smelt a flower fallen on the ground, designated for Lord Shiva’s worship. Seruthunai Nayanmar, a dedicated Vellala devotee serving in the temple, saw this as a disrespectful act towards Lord Shiva and impulsively cut off the queen’s nose as a penalty for her indiscretion.

Alarmed by his queen’s cries, King Kazharsinga rushed to the scene. Upon understanding the situation from Seruthunai Nayanmar, who explained the queen’s act, the king deemed the punishment insufficient and further punished the queen by severing her hand that had touched the flower! This extreme act of devotion from both the king and Seruthunai Nayanmar was celebrated by the people, and they were showered with celestial flowers as a mark of divine approval. Both Kazharsinga Nayanmar and Seruthunai Nayanmar earned the grace of Lord Shiva for their unwavering devotion. Lord Shiva appeared and took Kazharsinga Nayanmar with Him, while also restoring the queen’s nose and hand.
