As the narration of all the 51 verses of Kandhar Anubhuti would run into several pages, we confine within three verses and attempt to understand their meaning. It is the crest jewel, the gate-way to Jnana the way to the path of liberation. Kandhar Anubhuti, consisting of 52 verses is the quintessence of all the works of Arunagirinathar. (“Aridhakiya Mei Porulukku Adiyen Urida Upadesam Unarthiyava”). In another verse, he thanks the Lord for considering him fit enough to impart this rare advice. “Oh Muruga, by your grace, I could go through a new experience of speechlessness.” (Nesa Muruga Ninathu Anbu Arulal… Pesa Anubhuti Piranthathuve (28). Arunagirinathar says that as a result of this advice, he was elevated to a new state of consciousness where silence alone prevailed. Lord Muruga appeared before Arunagirinathar as Guru and gave the advice on the eternal truth. While other songs of Arunagirinathar which loud the glory of Muruga, his abode, his weapon (Vel), transport (Mayil) and rooster (ensign) are objective in nature, Kandar Anubhuti, which speaks of Arunagiri’s own experience is subjective. Kandhar Anubhuti is significant in another respect. (Adaikkala Porulam Ena Enai Azhaithu Muthiyadham Anuboothi Ena Arut Thiruppugazh Othuka). In his song on Arumuga temple of Kuthalam, the saint-poet said that the Lord had invited him and blessed him to sing the Anubhuti so that devotees can draw inspiration from it and lead a life of truth and righteousness. However, the devotees are blessed that Arunagirinathar could share with them some of his divine experience in the form of Kandhar Anubhuti. What one experiences cannot be explained to another. Kandhar Anubhuti: Experience is something personal. Here, we make a bird’s eye view of these works: While the hymn Kandhar Alamgaram described the infinite qualities of Muruga, the Vakuppu described the Lotus Feet of Lord Muruga as the ultimate refuge of all devotees. While the garland of songs hailed the Lord and sought His grace, the garland of hymns like Kandhar Anubhuti revealed his own experience of having received the grace. The search and rescue mission by coast guard too is affected by rough weather.Apart from the garland of songs which Arunagirinathar has weaved and offered as Thiruppugazh, he has also made beautiful garland of hymns to adore Muruga.
The weather in and around Lakshadweep remains adverse with high waves and strong winds. The total number of crew members is unclear,” said sources. CG is yet to get in touch with them but according to the details collected from the fishermen, eight fishermen from the sunken Andavan Thunai are alive. “It is unsure whether they swam to the nearest island or were rescued by other boats. There are unconfirmed reports that eight of the crew members escaped and reached the shore in one of the islands. Meanwhile, another boat from Tamil Nadu, Andavan Thunai had sunk off Lakshadweep coast. “The wind was so strong and the waves almost sunk our boat but by God’s grace we managed to reach the shore safely,” he said.
MURUGAN THUNAI DRIVER
Thaddeus, the driver of Noah’s Ark, a boat from Thenagapattanam that accompanied Murugan Thunai, said that they lost contact with the boat amid huge waves. If the boat sank, an aerial search could find the wreckage,” said ICG sources. The land-based search is coordinated by Lakshadweep police but they haven’t found anything. We are also checking whether the boat has reached any of the islands. “The whereabouts of Murugan Thunai is unclear.
According to reports collected from fishermen in other boats, there were 10 crew members on board and an aerial search will also be conducted using CG’s aircraft. CG ships under Lakshadweep unit were deployed at sea and are now searching for the boat they are yet to get a lead. While the other boats reached the shore, Murugan Thunai lost contact and since then there is no information about it. The boat, which set sail from Nagapattinam for fishing in the Arabian Sea, was on its way to Bitra Island in Lakshadweep with two other boats to escape heavy rain and winds.
KOCHI: Coast Guard (CG) has launched a search to locate the crew of Tamil Nadu fishing boat Murugan Thunai that was reported missing off Lakshadweep coast on Saturday night.
