Every movement of the bathing girls becomes praise.\n\nIt ends by praising the Goddess's feet: 'she who set us apart and raised us'. In Saiva Siddhanta it is Shakti who separates souls from their bonds, ripens them and helps them grow, as a mother bathes and raises her child.","story_title_ta":"\u0b85\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0bae\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bbf \u0b95\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0bbe \u0b85\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0ba3\u0bbe\u0bae\u0bb2\u0bc8","story_ta":"\u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bc1\u0bb1\u0bc8 \u0baa\u0b9f\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b95\u0b9f\u0bb5\u0bc1\u0bb3\u0bbe\u0ba9 \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bae\u0ba9\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b95\u0b9f\u0bb5\u0bc1\u0bb3\u0bbe\u0ba9 \u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd '\u0ba8\u0bae\u0bcd\u0bae\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bcd?' \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0bb4\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbe\u0b95 \u0bb5\u0bb3\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0baa\u0bcb\u0ba4\u0bc1, \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0ba8\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc7 \u0b85\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba4 \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bcb\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bc2\u0ba3\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0bb4\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bc1.

As the argument turned into a fight, a vast column of fire rose between them, its base and its top beyond sight. A voice said, 'Whoever first finds its base or its top is the greater.'\n\nVishnu became a boar and dug down through the earth, deeper and deeper, searching for ages, and never found the base. Brahma became a swan and flew up and up, and never found the top. On the way he met a thazhai flower drifting down and asked it to bear witness that he had reached the summit. Vishnu admitted defeat and bowed; Brahma lied. Then Siva appeared from the heart of the column. He declared that Brahma would have no temples for his lie and that the thazhai flower would not be offered to him, and he received the humble Vishnu with grace.\n\nThat fire later cooled into a mountain, Annamalai, and in its memory a great flame is lit on the summit every Karthigai Deepam. Manikkavasagar was staying at the foot of that mountain when, in the Margazhi dawn, he heard girls waking one another and singing on their way to bathe. In their voices he heard devotees waking each other to the love of God, and he sang Thiruvembavai. That is why the verses speak of 'the Mountain whom Vishnu could not know and Brahma could not see' and of 'the lotus feet of the Lord of Annamalai'.","reflection_ta":"\u0b89\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0b9a\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc6\u0baf\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba4\u0bc8 '\u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bb2\u0bbe\u0b95' \u0bae\u0bbe\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bb2\u0bbe\u0bae\u0bcd?","reflection_en":"Which of your everyday actions could become a song of praise?","image_prompt":"Pre-dawn in the month of Margazhi at the foot of the sacred hill of Thiruvannamalai, a column of soft golden fire faintly rising behind the hill, young village girls in bright half-saris with oil lamps calling at a doorway and bathing in a lotus pond, a temple tower and coconut palms, the morning star fading.
