चॆरुत्तुणै नायऩ्मार् (५४) गुरुपूजै

Observed on Puṣyaḥ nakshatra of Siṁhaḥ (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 Nayanar, 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 Nayanar, 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 disrespectful act, the king, adhering to strict devotional principles, further punished the queen by severing her hand that had touched the flower. This extreme act of devotion from both the king and Seruthunai Nayanar was celebrated by the people, and they were showered with celestial flowers as a mark of divine approval. Both Kazharsinga Nayanar and Seruthunai Nayanar earned the grace of Lord Shiva for their unwavering devotion.

विवेकानन्द-भाषणं चिकागोनगरे #१३०

Event occured on 1893-09-11 (gregorian).

On this day, Vivekananda gave a brief speech representing India and Hinduism. He was initially nervous, bowed to Saraswati (the Hindu goddess of learning) and began his speech with “Sisters and brothers of America!”. At these words, Vivekananda received a two-minute standing ovation from the crowd of seven thousand.

The New York Herald noted, “Vivekananda is undoubtedly the greatest figure in the Parliament of Religions. After hearing him we feel how foolish it is to send missionaries to this learned nation”.

He spoke several more times “at receptions, the scientific section, and private homes”.

(Also the day in 2001 when adherents of another religion brought another message of “peace” to USA 😀 )
