Naalaiya Divya Prabhandam - how it started.... Chapter - 3
We will see how first verses were written which was the base for the remaining 4000 verses. As mentioned earlier the first three Azhwars were believed to be from Dwapara yuga ( while some say during 7th century).
The first three Azhwar were believed to be born directly with no parents, like Poigai Aalwar was born from Vishnu's conch , Boothath Azhwar was born from Vishnu's mace and Pei Azhwar was born from Vishnu's sword.
I still remember my recent visit to Yathothkari Perumal temple in kanchipuram where saw the pond where Poigai Azhwar , though no water this requires some good maintenance, on the compound walls at outside there are notes left which highlights Poigai Azhwar birth reference and there is a shrine for him inside the temple...

Going back , once there was a heavy rain in a place near Thirukovilur and Poigai Azhwar found a small space to stay away from rain which can accommodate 3 ppl to stand , sometime later Boothath Azhwar joined in same place to hide from rain and Pei Azhwar also joined , it was so pitch dark and each other of the three Azhwar are not able to each other , however after a while Poigai Azhwar was able feel there is a fourth person in the room based on the feelings that got, during lightning he was able to see the face and it was so charm and peace and Poolai Azhwar right away knew it was Lord Vishnu and started to write 100 hymns on Lord and praying to have the light, he considered world as a big vessel and bakthi as oil in that vessel and surrender to got as a light , the hymn were called as Thiruandhadi , andhadhi means the ending letter of a verse will be a starting letter for the next verse, similarly both Boothath Azhwar and Pei azhwar also wrote 100s of hymns instantly and this is how Naalaiyira divya prabhandam started.
Even a paper that keep last week is lost and all will have a question how come a hymn written in dwapara yuga was available now, this is the blessing of God and Nammazhwar and Nathamuniyar.
Let's wait till chapter 4 to see how this happened...
