Tiruvasagam authored by Saint Manickavasagar occupies the eighth place in the order of the 12 Saivite hymns. The word Ettu in Tamil means number eight and also catching. It is difficult even for the best spiritual scholars to understand the depth of Tiruvasagam called Ettanthirumurai meaning that its depth of substance could not be caught easily. The popular saying in the Saivite World that one who is not touched by Tiruvasagam would not and cannot be touched by anything is a scholarly verdict pronounced by the enlightened on the greatness of this book.
Saint Manickavasagar graces in the form of Guru in the Athmanadhaswami temple of Thillai Thiruperundurai. This is a temple built by the Saint Himself. | |
