The king ordered to tramp Thirunaavukkarasar by the Royal elephant. To that rich man we became the unrelievable slaves and have taken shelter in his beautiful reddish feet full of flowers. The Lord Shankara, who is not responsible to anybody else, is wearing the ring of sea shell in one ear. We are not constrained by the rule of any king.

The king ordered to bring Thirunaavukkarasar to the court. They asked the Jain king of the country (Maheendhra Pallavan) to punish Thirunaavukkarasar. The Jain leaders did not like the return of Thirunaavukkarasar to Saivism. In Thiruvadhikai He destroyed the Thripura. *Veerattaanam - The eight Holy places where Lord Shiva destroyed the evil forces. Oh God of the Veerattaanam* of Adhikai kedilam. Oh the God on the Holy Bull, I will pray your feet in the day and in the night, always. I did a lot of misdeeds due to my ignorance.

Kootraayinavaaru vilakkagileer kodumai pala seidhana naanariyeenĮetraai adikke iravum pakalum piriyaadhu vananguvan epppozhudhum Place: Thiruvadhikai (a village near Kadaloor) He sang this hymn and the God gave him relief from his pain and since he impressed the Lord with his hymns the Lord gave him the name "Thirunaavukkarasu" meaning the king of the tongue. Finally he returned to his sister, who gave him the Holy Ash and asked him to pray the Lord of Thiruvadhikai. The Jain spiritual leaders were not able to cure it. God gave him Soolai disease ( heavy pain in stomach).

His elder sister Thilakavathiyar was quite worried about this and was praying to Lord Shiva for her brothers return to Saiva tradition.

Marul neekiyaar, the original name of Thirunavukkarasar, in the early periods of his life got illusioned by the Jain principles and became a Jain follower with the name Devaseynar. This page is not in the ITRANS format that is followed in the site.
