With Margazhi month upon us I’m going to try and post some verses from Thiruppavai with English translation. Apologizing ahead if there are any errors.

Thank you @GunduHuDuGa dor reminding us about Margazhi

Here are some resources to both get the verses and read in detail the translation and the more detailed treatment of the meaning of the devotional verses.

#Thiruppavai

Andal is Devi’s amsavatharam, Sri Devi incarnated in the form of Seethā performed upadeshak to the people of the earth. It is said that she even did Upadesham to Ravana who did not heed her but in his next birth as Sisupālan redeemed himself.
Through her #Thiruppavai prabhandham she is showing us the way to reach Bhagavan’s feet.

Verse 1 continued below
Paasuram (Verse) 1 of Thiruppavai

மார்கழித் திங்கள் மதி நிறைந்த நன்னாளால்

On the auspicious full moon day of the Margazhi month

நீராடப் போதுவீர் போதுமினோ நேரிழையீர்

Well ornamented maidens, those desirous of taking bath in the holy River please come on
Paasuram 1 continues..

சீர் மல்கும் ஆய்ப்பாடிச் செல்வச் சிறுமீர்காள்

Oh prosperous young girls of Gokulam, rich and grand in beauty and wealth

கூர்வேல் கொடுந்தொழிலன் நந்தகோபன் குமரன்

Son of Nandagopan with sharp spear who is terrible to his enemies
Paasuram 1 continues..

ஏரார்ந்த கண்ணி யசோதையிளஞ் சிங்கம்

Krishna the young lion cub of Yashoda with charming eyes

கார் மேனி செங்கண் கதிர் மதியம் போல் முகத்தான்

Krishna who is Dark hued, reddish eyed, with lustrous face that shines like the sun and the moon
Paasuram 1 continues..

நாராயணனே நமக்கே பறை தருவான்

It is only Sriman Narayana who will bestow us with boons

பாரோர் புகழப் படிந்தேலோர் எம்பாவாய்

Let us perform Paavai-Nombu (Vrth) to him and get the praise of people of this world
There are some who believe this Paasuram has a deeper meaning than the simple translation. There is plenty of it on https://t.co/XtibQRFR0P for those interested.

During the course of this week and next I will attempt to look at multiple sources and post some.

#Thiruppavai Pāsuram 2
In this Andal describes our duty, what we, aspiring to reach the supreme goal of this life, the sacred feet of Bhagvan Krisha, must do to be bestowed with his grace

More from Dharmic Nationalist 🕉️ #BleedBhagwa🚩🚩

Wanted to share some thoughts on the topic of work life balance that @Kishoreciyer1 brought up and on which @wataboutery so eloquently expounded.

Early in my career I was lucky enough to work in roles I loved and under nurturing managers who were my mentors. (Contd)


2/n
I worked hard and long. But I always returned home not contended with that day’s work and hungry for more. That satisfaction at work made my home life enjoyable. I found time to play badminton and volleyball. Work and life were perfectly balanced.

3/n
I couldn’t wait to go to work. Great team and good manager.

But as I got married and responsibilities increased demands on my time grew, especially as just married man helping my wife acclimatize with US.

I sought work - life balance because ..everyone seeks, right?

4/n
As luck would have it 9/11 happens, economy goes for a tail spin, and my company files for bankruptcy. So time to buckle up.

This is when I realized work life balance isn’t what I sought. I wanted a satisfying work that did not require me to compromise key personal goals

5/n
Working hard to keep up the morale in a company in bankruptcy isn’t easy. But that gave my career a mission.

When you are passionate about your work and committed to it, and have a good manager you can find ways to be effective without compromising your personal life
