For the growth of Fame and Righteousness


Tamil Transliteration

Aathithan ambhuli anghi kubaeran amarar thangoan
Podhir piramann puraari muraari podhiya munii
Kaadhipp porupadaikk kandhan ganapathi kaaman mudhal
Sadhiththa punniyar ennilar poatruvarr thaiyalaiyae

Translation

The Sun God, Moon, Fire, Kubher the God of wealth,
Indra the king of the higher world, Brahma the creator
Residing on the lotus, Siva the destroyer of the flying
Cities the deadly three, Vishnu the aggressor of Muran,
Agasthiar the Saint of Podhighai Mountain, Kandan
The warrior God with the spear Killing en masse, Ganapathy,
Kaman and the rest of Gods, by virtue of their good deeds accrued
Thus possessing the fruition thereof worship the lady supreme!

Simple Meaning:

Sun, Moon, Fire, Kubher, Indra, Brahma, Siva, Vishnu, Agasthiar, Kandan, Ganapathy, Kaman and the rest of the Gods who have accrued good deeds and their command fruition of those deeds worship the supreme lady

Commentary:

There are two important observations

1) All the Gods are males and none is a female representative
2) Individual God is a specialist in a field
3) Each of the God has a wife representing a special area


Sun is the God that controls all the planets and hence responsible for the life of all the creatures
Chhaya is the wife of the Sun God; she tolerates the heat of her husband

Moon also is the controller of the lifes of earthly creatures
Twenty-seven stars are his wives who control the lives of human-beings

Fire is one of the natural forces
Swaha is his wife who transfers the offering made to her husband

Brahma is the creator
Saraswathi is his wife and goddess of education

Kubher is the god of wealth
Yakshi is his wife; look after treasure hidden in the earth and resemble that of fairies

Indra is the king of the higher world
Indrani is his beautiful queen

Siva is the destroyer
Parvathi is his wife who has all the powers equivalent to her husband’s

Vishnu is the preserver
Lakshmi is his wife who bestows wealth to her devotees

Kandan is the commander of the devas
Valli and Deivanai, the essence of being earthly and heavenly existence and enjoyments

Ganapathy is the God who is the origin of any work
Siddhi and Buddhi are his wives who literally mean victory and brain power

Kaman is the God of sex
Rathi is his wife who made special prayer so that she could see her destroyed husband

Agasthiar is the saint of the southern Podhigai
He is unmarried

All the above powerful beings had to have penance and good deeds so that they can pray Abhirami.

If this is the case with power packed Gods, we need to think of ordinary human beings like me
