13. Thiruppoovalli “Singing of the manner in which the terrible poison of the great deep sea became edible food for Him Who stands in the position of King to Indra, Maal, Ayan and the rest of the devaas but Who is Himself unassociated with attributes or symbols let us pluck flowers of lily”. (13:12) “Singing of the gold coloured pollen of Cassia flowers worn by Him of jewelled Feet and of Him Who under the shade of the banyan tree that day expounded the rare Vedaas and of He Whom the heavenly beings and great saints daily worship steadily to their heart's content for their well being. let us pluck slowers of lily”. (13:13) “Singing how the Lord dwelling in Ekambam bestowing the true picture of His twin Feet in my mind and making it His abode, dances in the hall of Thillai girt by wide walls making it His own very home, let us pluck flowers of lily.” (13:14) 461
