A boy named Vicharasarman tended the village cows. Seeing them pour out milk of their own accord, he made a linga of river sand and bathed it with their milk. His father Echadattan heard of it, came and kicked over the pots of milk. The boy, lost in worship, flung a stick that lay nearby; it became an axe and cut his father's legs.\n\nThe Lord appeared, embraced the boy, said 'From now on I am your father,' placed his own konrai garland on him, and made him Chandesvara, with a share of the food and cloth offered to the Lord. To this day, worship in a Siva temple is complete only after bowing at Chandesvara's shrine. 'That crime became his food' says that an act the world calls a crime turned into grace through the fullness of his love for the Lord.","story_title_ta":"\u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bca\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc7\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bb0\u0bcd","story_ta":"\u0b9a\u0bcb\u0bb4 \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0bae\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0ba3\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb0\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b89\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0bb3 \u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b9a\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bc7\u0baf\u0bcd\u0b9e\u0bb2\u0bc2\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0b9a\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0b85\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba3\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0b9a\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0b9a\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0bae\u0b95\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd. \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0bb5\u0baf\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bc7\u0baf\u0bc7 \u0bb5\u0bc7\u0ba4\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1, \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bca\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bc7 \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd. \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b8a\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc8 \u0bae\u0bc7\u0baf\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b87\u0b9f\u0bc8\u0baf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b92\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0bb5\u0bc8 \u0b85\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0ba9\u0bae\u0bcd \u0baa\u0ba4\u0bb1\u0bbf, '\u0b87\u0ba9\u0bbf \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bc7 \u0b87\u0bb5\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc8 \u0bae\u0bc7\u0baf\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bc7\u0ba9\u0bcd' \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd.\n\n\u0b85\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bcb\u0b9f\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0bc7\u0baf\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baa\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc6\u0bb4\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1, \u0b85\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bc7 \u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bae\u0bbe\u0b95\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bca\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba9. \u0b85\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bc0\u0ba3\u0bbe\u0bb5\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1, \u0b86\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0ba3\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b93\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b87\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bae\u0bc8\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1, \u0bae\u0bb2\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc2\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbf, \u0b95\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bb1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0baa\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0bc7\u0b95\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc6\u0baf\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0bb5\u0bb4\u0bbf\u0baa\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bcd. \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcb\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b87\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0ba4\u0bca\u0b9f\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bc1;

While still a boy he mastered the Vedas and understood that their meaning is Siva. One day he saw the village cowherd beating a cow, and in distress he said, 'From now on I will tend them myself.'\n\nUnder his loving care the cows thrived, and at the sight of him they let down their milk of their own accord. Not wanting it to go to waste, he made a linga of river sand, decked it with flowers, milked the cows into pots, and bathed the linga with the milk in worship. He did this every day, and the village never lacked milk. Still, someone complained to Echadattan that his son was pouring the cows' milk out on the sand.\n\nThe next day the father hid behind a tree and watched. Seeing his son absorbed in worship, he flew into a rage, ran up and beat him, and kicked over the pots of milk. Lost in worship, the boy did not feel the blows; but when the milk was spilled he knew an offence had been done against Siva. He picked up a stick lying nearby and flung it. It became an axe and cut his father's legs, and the boy returned to his worship.\n\nThen the Lord appeared with Uma on the bull, embraced the boy and said, 'For my sake you struck down the father who begot you. From now on I am your father.' He placed the konrai garland from his own hair on the boy, made him Chandesvara, guardian of the Lord's possessions, and granted him a share of the food, cloth and garlands offered to the Lord. The father too was restored and given release. To this day, at the end of worship in a Siva temple, devotees bow at Chandesvara's shrine and show that they carry away nothing that belongs to the temple. When Thiruthol Nokkam sings that 'the crime became his food', this is the story.","reflection_ta":"\u0b89\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0bbf\u0b95 \u0bae\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0ba4\u0bc8 \u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba8\u0bc0\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0b9f\u0bbf \u0ba8\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bc0\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd?","reflection_en":"How do you stand firm when someone tries to stop what matters most to you?","image_prompt":"A young Brahmin boy seated on a sandy riverbank bathing a small sand linga with milk from clay pots, cows gathered around him with milk flowing, Siva and Uma appearing above on a white bull to place a konrai garland on him, and in the foreground girls with hands on one another's shoulders dancing in a ring at Thillai.
