kayiRu cArththuthal


சேக்கிழார் அருளிய திருத்தொண்டர் புராணம்
திருஞானசம்பந்த சுவாமிகள் புராணம்
பன்னிரண்டாம் திருமுறை

திருச்சிற்றம்பலம்

சாற்று மெய்ப்பொருள் தருந் திருமுறையினைத் தாமே
நீற்று வண்கையால் மறித்தலும் வந்து நேர்ந்துளதால்
நாற்றடம் புயத்து அண்ணலார் மருவு நள்ளாறு
போற்றும் அப்பதிகம் "போகமார்த்த பூண்முலையாள்".

thirucciRRambalam


Meaning of song:


As he himself with the powerful hand smeared in ash took 
a random page in the thirumuRai that declares the Truth,
the padhikam that came out is the one that is praises
thirunaLLARu of the Superior with four great shoulders
(starting) - bOgamArththa pUNmulaiyAL.

Notes:
1. A custom many devotees follow even today and get 
benefited is, "kayiRu cArththal". With all devotion after
worship the devotees puts a sacred thread in the 
thirumuRai collection and picks a random padhikam 
using that thread. The padhikam that comes out would
have the resolution to the thing sought by the devotee.
meykaNDAr who composed the great philosophy text,
"shiva nyAna bOdham" was born through the remedy
got this way. 
   This tradition has been started by the great nyAna 
cambandhar himself when he wanted to pick a padhikam 
for "anal vAdham" (fire challenge).
