Notes

1. There was a famine time. At that time God gave appar and sambandhar  
a coin each at the west and east altars of the thiruvIzimizalai temple  
respectively. With that the two great saints of Shaivism used to  
provide the food driving away the hunger of the devotees. But there  
used to be a delay in providign food at sambandhar's monastery comapred  
to appars. It was because the shopkeepers dilly-dallied a lot to  
accept the coin from his monastery saying it was flawful. Sambandhar  
praised the great service motto of appar. To provide food to the  
devotees in time then on, he decided to pray the God to give flawless  
coins. He sang this padhikam praying to get perfect coins and he got  
the coins then on which were eagerly taken by the shopkeepers. 
2. This padhikam is sung for victory in legal tussles and prosperity of  
elder brothers. (The complete padhikam is available through  
siddhanta/prayers-for-specific-ailments)
