Devotees take it as the day Arunagirinathar fell from the temple tower at Thiruvannamalai and was caught in Murugan's arms. On that day the Lord stood before him glowing red like the evening sky and made him realise something that has no equal.\n\nThe last two lines state a great truth plainly. Only one who has tasted honey knows its sweetness; however well you describe it, to someone who has never tasted it the description stays words. The direct experience of God is the same. Those who know it in that way know it; how could it be handed to another?\n\nThen why write the book at all? Because words cannot give the experience, but they can point towards it, like a finger pointing at the moon. Every verse of Kandar Anubhuti is such a finger. The poet is honest about the limits of what he is doing, and that honesty makes the pointing more trustworthy.","story_title_ta":"\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0bae\u0bb0\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f \u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bc1","story_ta":"\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb3\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0baa\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf \u0bae\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0ba9\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bae\u0bc8\u0b9a\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bb0\u0bbe\u0ba9 \u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bb5\u0bc2\u0bb0\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95 \u0b85\u0bb0\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0ba3\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcb\u0b9f\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0bc1\u0bb1\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0bb1\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0bae\u0bb0\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc0\u0b9f\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc2\u0bb4 \u0b85\u0bae\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b89\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0baf\u0ba4\u0bc1; \u0b85\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bc7 \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd.\n\n\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0b89\u0baa\u0ba4\u0bc7\u0b9a\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc6\u0baf\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0b85\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0bae\u0bc8\u0b9a\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bbf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0b9a\u0b95\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b86\u0ba9\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd; \u0b95\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc8\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0ba3\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bcb\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc6\u0bb2\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0baa\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0ba9\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf \u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0b9a\u0b95\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd, \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0ba8\u0b9f\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bca\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2 \u0bae\u0bc1\u0baf\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1, \u0bae\u0bc0\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bc0\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \"\u0b9a\u0bca\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2 \u0bae\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2\u0bc8\" \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0b89\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0baa\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bc7 \u0b85\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0b87\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0bae\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bbf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0b9a\u0b95\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1.","story_title_en":"The Guru Under the Kurundha Tree","story_en":"From the Thiruvilaiyadal Puranam. Thiruvadavurar, chief minister of the Pandya king, set out with the royal treasure to buy horses. At Thiruperunthurai he came upon a guru sitting beneath a kurundha tree, surrounded by disciples. At the very sight of him the minister's heart melted, and he knew that this guru was Lord Shiva himself.\n\nThe guru gave him the teaching. From that moment the minister became Manikkavasagar, and he spent the money for the horses on building a temple. In the Thiruvasagam he later sang, he tries again and again to tell what happened that day, and again and again he dissolves into confessing that it cannot be told.\n\nManikkavasagar is a witness to the truth of this verse: what the guru makes one realise on 'that day' is known only by those who know it in that way, and the best a poet can do is sing around its edges.","reflection_ta":"\u0b89\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bc1\u0bb4\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbe\u0b95 \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb3\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95 \u0bae\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba4, \u0b86\u0ba9\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b89\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc8 \u0bae\u0bbe\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0baf \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0baa\u0bb5\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe?","reflection_en":"Is there an experience that changed you but that you have never been able to fully explain to anyone?","image_prompt":"A royal minister kneeling before a radiant guru seated under a kurundha tree, disciples around, horses waiting untended in the distance, the sky glowing deep red like Murugan's form at sunset, Tanjore-painting inspired style with palm-leaf manuscript texture, ivory, ochre, copper and deep teal palette, no text or letters in the image."},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/3775","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\/3775\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3775"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"kural_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kural_section?post=3775"},{"taxonomy":"literary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literary_category?post=3775"},{"taxonomy":"author_poet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/author_poet?post=3775"},{"taxonomy":"thinai_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thinai_type?post=3775"},{"taxonomy":"work_title","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/work_title?post=3775"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
