Sri Madhurakavi Āzhwār:
Sri Madhurakavi Āzhwār, was born in Thirukkolur (Tamil Nadu, India) in the Tamil month of Chitthirai, under
Chitthirai Nakshatram (Birth Star). He was considered as the Amsā (Incarnation) of Sri Garudā, Lord Vishnu’s
vehicle. Madhurakavi, while on a pilgrimage to the North, saw a bright light in the Southern direction and decided to
trace it to its source. That bright light brought him ultimately to Thirukkurugoor. When he enquired the local people
of the village, they led him to the young boy (Sri Namm Āzhwār) seated in meditation in the lotus position under a
tamarind tree. Madhurakavi threw a small pebble at him to wake him up and posed a strange philosophic question
to him. “If an individual soul takes birth in this lifeless material body, what will it eat and where will it exist?”.
“It will eat that and live there” came the reply from Namm Āzhwār, implying that if the self is a liberated soul it
will live in the divine awareness drawing its subsistence from it, on the other hand if it is a Karma-bound soul, it
will indulge in sense pleasures and live in the mundane world. Hearing this short but profound philosophic response,
Sri Madhurakavi decided instantly that he had met his Guru and became his disciple. His work consited of only ten
verses called ‘Kanninun Chirutthāmbu’ all on his Guru, Sri Namm Āzhwār, whom he considered as the Lord Himself.
This work is a classic example of ‘Guru Bhakti’ (Devotion to Teacher). Please join us in celebrating this Āzhwār`s
life and his composition.
