When he was young, his wife learned one day that he had gone to another woman. Hurt, she said, 'By the holy blue throat of Siva, do not touch us again.' Honouring that word 'us', he vowed from that day never to touch any woman. Though they lived in the same house, the two kept that oath into old age.\n\nTo show the world how firm that vow was, the Lord came as a Siva yogi and gave him a begging bowl for safekeeping. Later he made it vanish, then came back and asked for it. The bowl could not be found. 'Then hold your wife's hand, dip in the tank and swear you did not take it,' said the yogi. To keep their oath, the two held the two ends of a stick and went down into the water.\n\nWhen they rose, their old age was gone and they were young again. The yogi vanished, and the Lord appeared with Uma on the bull and called them both to Sivaloka. That tank in Thillai is still called Ilamaiyakkinar Kulam, 'the tank of the one who gave back youth'.\n\nIn the Arputhap Pathu Manikkavasagar honestly confesses his desires and says that the Lord's rescuing him from them is the marvel. Thiruneelakantar too had once gone astray, but for one word he stood firm for the rest of his life. The Lord does not abandon those who stumble; to those who have turned, he gives back even their youth.","reflection_ta":"\u0b89\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc8 '\u0b86\u0b9f \u0bb5\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd' \u0bae\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb4\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bbf \u0b8e\u0ba4\u0bc1?","reflection_en":"What joy makes you want to dance?","image_prompt":"An elderly potter and his wife rising from a temple tank in Thillai transformed into a radiant young couple, each holding one end of a long stick between them, a Siva yogi vanishing into light on the steps, clay begging bowls on the bank, a temple tower behind Warm palm-leaf manuscript and Tanjore-painting inspired style, ivory, ochre, copper and deep teal palette, ornate gold border, no text or letters in the image."},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/8377","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":2,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/8377\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9205,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/8377\/revisions\/9205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8377"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"kural_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kural_section?post=8377"},{"taxonomy":"literary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literary_category?post=8377"},{"taxonomy":"author_poet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/author_poet?post=8377"},{"taxonomy":"thinai_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thinai_type?post=8377"},{"taxonomy":"work_title","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/work_title?post=8377"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
