Nama Article 8th December 2007
 

Saint Thayagaraja

 

Meaning

 

Pallavi : O My Mind! When there is a fine royal path (Chanting the Divine Name), why enter bylanes?

 

Anupallavi : When there are condensed milk and cream, why this destestable toddy?

 

Charanam : What a very beautiful form which is a feast to the eyes! What a name which shines in the mouth of Lord Siva (the three-eyed)! What an Ancient Lord firmly established in the very house of this Thyagaraja! O My Mind! When there is the fine royal path called devotion to Lord Sri Rama of Ayodhya having these attributes, why enter bylanes?
