காரைக்கால் அம்மையார் அருளிய - அற்புதத் திருவந்தாதி
பதினோராம் திருமுறை.
திருச்சிற்றம்பலம்
பெறினும் பிறிதியாதும் வேண்டேம் நமக்கீ
துறினும் உறாதொழியு மேனும் - சிறிதுணர்த்தி
மற்றொருகண் நெற்றிமேல் வைத்தான்தன் பேயாய
நற்கணத்தி லொன்றாய நாம்.

Meaning of Arputa Tiruvandati
Even if we are provided with, we do not
want anything else, irrespective of whether this
(being a ghost) is appropriate or inappropriate for
us. We are one in the great cadets of ghost category
owned by the Lord, Who makes a bit noticeable, another
eye on His forehead.
Notes
1. People dread and detest the ghosts/spirits. There
has been a daring lady who asked for the form of a ghost
and most interestingly also takes pride in that form !
Astounding !
"Lord shiva dances in the cemeteries where ghosts
dance ! When that is the case I am gifted to be a ghost
to be performing with the God ! Whatever else you provide
those are all immaterial to me.", peyAr seem to say.
If all the ghosts are like our pEyAr, we do not detest
ghosts, but we revere them !!
2. uRum - proper.
