Son of Bhuvaneshwari, I have trusted your feet; to praise your name is my tapas. Every breath I will let out as 'Muruga, Muruga'; within and without I will see only Murugan. If there were no Murugan there would be no three worlds; all grace is Murugan, all love is Murugan. Whoever holds the feet of the Skanda Guru of Skandagiri and takes refuge in him wins union with him \u2014 this is truth, without doubt.","explanation_ta":"\u0ba8\u0bbe\u0bae\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bae\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bae\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc8\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bca\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bb2\u0bcd: '\u0b95\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba9\u0bcd' \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b9a\u0bca\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2\u0bc7 \u0ba8\u0bcb\u0baf\u0bc8\u0ba4\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bc0\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd.","explanation_en":"A song on the power of the name: the single word 'Kandan' is enough to end illness.","story_title_ta":"\u0bb0\u0bbe\u0b95\u0bae\u0bcd: \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bb9\u0bb0\u0bbf","story_ta":"\u0bb0\u0bbe\u0b95\u0bae\u0bcd: \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bb9\u0bb0\u0bbf","story_title_en":"","story_en":"Raga: \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bb9\u0bb0\u0bbf","reflection_ta":"","reflection_en":"","image_prompt":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/12102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/verse"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/12102\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"kural_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kural_section?post=12102"},{"taxonomy":"literary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literary_category?post=12102"},{"taxonomy":"author_poet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/author_poet?post=12102"},{"taxonomy":"thinai_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thinai_type?post=12102"},{"taxonomy":"work_title","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/work_title?post=12102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
