Naurani Sastha Preethi songs¬

¬
By ¬
P.R.Ramachander¬
¬
Introduction ¬
Nurani is one of the very famous Agraharams of Palakkad Town with large number of
Brahmin houses. The people who originally inhabited this Agraharam believe that they have
migrated to this village from Thiruvannamali of Tamil Nadu. It seems after their ancestors
decided to settle in that place and when they were clearing the bushes in the western side of
the village , The labourers who were from the nearby Harijan colony heard a sound akin to
the ringing of bells as well as very aromatic perfume like scent. The Brahmins of the village
were informed about this . Further digging was done very carefully and three cylindrical
stones as well as a flat stone were recovered from there. The astrologers who were summoned
to find out what they are told that the Three cylindrical shapes were
the idols of Dharma Sastha and his two consorts, Poorna and Pushkala and the flat stone was
that of Bhagawathy (Some say Malikapurathamma). The idols of Sastha and that of Poorna
and Pushkala were installed in the Nurani agraharam and the the idol of Bhagawathi was
installed in the harijan colony of Kaikuthu Paramba. The people of the Agraharam built a
temple for Sastha along with his consorts. Later they came to know that there was a
Namboodiri in that place before the agraharam was built and he was a great devotee of
Aryankavu Sastha . He used to visit the Aryankavu every year but when he became old and
was not able to visit Aryankavu, the Lord appeared in his dream and ordered him to install his
statutes in front of his house and worship them. People of Nurani believe that these were the
idols worshipped by that Namboodiri. The people of the village believe that all this happened
more than 200 years earlier. At That time Ayyappan as a God was not popular among
Brahmins of Kerala . But Sastha with his consorts was very popular in Thirunelveli district of
Tamil Nadu. There are even today , large number of Sastha temples in that district. It is in
one such village called Kulathoor which is near Kallidai Kurichi town that the practice of
Sastha Preethi originated. This village had a group of Brahmins called Karanthayar
Brahmins. They were essentially business people and used to carry out trade in various parts
of Kerala. In due course they first settled in Ernakulam and later In Trichur. (they were called
Pondy Brahmins) . These settlers were called the Pondi Samooham in kerala. One of the
members of this samooham was a family of Kambangudi. It seems this family helped
Swami Ayyappan by providing him food when he came to hunt for a tigress. At That time it
is believed that The Lord promised them that he would be with them wherever they go and
would assist them.(Kambangudikku naan adimai-I am a slave to the Kambangudi family) . It
was possibly that this family which started the Sastha Preethi as we know it now. It is
essentially confined to the Brahmin community . (A similar function carried out by the Non
Brahmin community is called Ayyappan Vilakku. ) After the worship and singing songs
extolling Dharma Sastha , a wholesome food is provided to all the Brahmins. It seems in
Kualthoor where it seems to have originated , the eighteen agraharams used to join together
and perform it in a grand way . It is not clear when Sastha Preethi started being celebrated in
Kerala agraharams. Possibly it started in a small way in the Pondi Agraharams in Ernakulam.
But the Grand Sastha Preethi which is being celebrated in Noorani must have originated from
here. I am telling this because , Most of the Sastha preethi songs are addressed to the Then
Kulathoor Ayyan though the villagers claim that they are celebrating it for the past 300 years.
It is not at all clear about the format of the Sastha Pattukkal at the earliest times. One of the
great Musician of Nurani called Parameswara Bhagawathar who was in the court of King
Swathi Thirunal Maharaja , has played a key role in collecting these songs.¬
Most of these songs are addressed to the Thenkulathoor ayyan. Many people still believe that
the Kulathoor that they are referring in Kulathoor puzha. But this is not so , because in
Kualthoor puzha Sastha is consecrated as a child and not as one who was married to Poorna
and Pushkala. It is also interesting to note that there is only one idol of the boy Sastha in
Aryan Kavu (Namboodiri is supposed to have consecrated it based on this temple) , But In
Kulathoor Sastha temple which is near Kallidai Kurichi the sastha is with his queens Poorna
and Pushkala. Another important aspect about Nurani Sastha songs is that they extol also the
son of Sastha called Chella Pillai, and many couriers of Sastha Like Vella Kal bhootham,
SAngili Sastha, Yakshi , Karuppan and so on. Chella Pillai and these Bhootha courtiers of
Sastha are not very popular in the Ayyappan cult of Sabari Malai. It is interesting to note that
they are mentioned and are also popular in the KUlathhor temple of Kallidai Kurichi.
Another interesting aspect of these songs is that almost all of them are in Tamil. Since the
Palakkad Tamil is not pure but to a certain extent mixed with Malayalam , the words in the
songs are mostly spelled in Palakkad Tamil . Except for one or two dhyana slokas in Sanskrit,
few Vanchi Pattu(Boat songs) in Malayalam , all the text is in Tamil. I had struggled to
translate these songs in to English because of this . I am sure large number of mistakes are
still there . I request readers to point out these mistakes to me as comments or by mail to my
e-mail ID. I am requesting this because this great treasure of songs about Sastha which we
have inherited must be preserved for posterity in a language that they can understand. ¬

¬
How the Sastha Preethi are sung in Nurani¬
¬
(From a book called Nurani Sastha preethi Padal published by Sri N.E.Padmanabhan and Sri
N.E.Anantheswaran in 2005)¬
¬
In Nurani Sastha Preethi is not a one or two days function. The festival starts from the
commencement of the Mandalam every year. Around 9 Pm all devotees assemble in the
temple for ¬
the ardhajama pooja and sing Bhajans in conventional style peculiar to Nurani
.Changalavatta( Oil lamp hanging on a chain) is lighted and after breaking coconut in the
Sastha SAnnidhi and after three pradakshinams accompanied by Nadaswaram , all devotees
sit in two opposite lines facing each other at the Sastha sannidhi. Destined Bhagawathar with
the permission of elders commences the songs as per Padathi (Practice) giving importance to
Sastha songs , natta, thodaya mangalam, viruthams , keerthanams and then Deeparadhana is
performed. After Deeparadhana and distribution of prasadams concluding poojas and songs
continue. Manthra pushpam, Swarna pushpam , Chathurveda parayanam and Aseervadams
are chanted.One stanza from shiva ashtakam , ashtapadi and a keerthanam , followed by
thevaram , virutham, pathyam , venpa , kalithurai , NaLANGU, Kummi , Choornikai, Oonjal
Nadai chuthal and Vazthu follow.¬
In the fourth and fifth week of the mandalam , after singing the usual songs an auspicious
Wednesday or Saturday is selected for starting the “Avesha Pattu” , For this , senior devotees
prostrate before the Lord Dharma Sastha and seek permission from the president and
members as well as elders of the village to commence the Sastha songs. Afterwards Avesha
pattu is sung on all wednedays and Saturdays till Sastha preethi. These songs alert the
devotees and create inspiration and Bhakthi in them . The Komaram or Velichappadu known
as Narthakas dance around the temple to the tune of the songs to add gaiety to the occasion.
Senior Komaram is given Sword and big rings(Thandai) and are adorned with Koorai(Red
cloth) They dance around the temple distributing Vibhuthi prasdams, which instuills faith and
devotion.¬
These songs are to be sung only in the traditional way and ragas/.thalams should not be
changed to maintain age old tradition and the sentiments and devotion which go with these
songs.¬
Preceding wedneday before Sastha preethi , Sastha savarna sahasranama archana to Sastha is
performed and on Thursday 1008 SAnku pooja and Abishekam to Lord Maha Vishnu are
performed. Further Poorna dravya abishekam to Sastha and Kalababishekam to Vishnu are
also performed.¬
On the auspicious Saturday after mandalam Sastha pretha is scheduled except on Shukla
Sashti , Ekadasi , Amavasya and Pournami.¬
After all great religious observations on the Sastha preethi day , which includes a great feast ,
at night Vanji Pattu commences. After four pradakshinams of the temple , all devotees
assemble together and sing all the songs as usual. ¬
Acknowledgements¬
I have only heard about these great songs sung during Sastha Preethi at Nurani(Noorani)
.When I wanted to translate them in to English, Sri P.V.AnathaNarayanan , who is my friend
encouraged me do it. He also gave me a English transliterated version of The entire Sastha
Preethi songs done by Sri Choodamani Noorani Hariharan alias Sunil of New delhi. I have
completely used these transliterated texts. My grateful thanks are to Sunil , who has done a
back breaking job of typing the very large number of songs in English. Sri
P.V.Ananthanarayanan also gave me a printed Tamil book called Noorani Sastha Preethi
Padal published in 2005 by Sri N.E.Padmanabhan and Sri N.E.Anatheswaran in 2005.
Whenever I had doubts I have referred to this book. My grateful acknowledgements to both
thse authors , who live in Mumbai. My grateful acknowledgments are also due to my friend
Sri P.V.Ananthanarayanan.¬
Without the blessing of the Lord Dharma Sastha , I simply could not have done the job I took
up. My anantha koti Namaskarams to him.¬
As per tradition the songs commence with a prayer to Lord Ganesa.¬

¬
When one Rakshasa did penance addressing Lord Shiva Sankara wearing a crescent,¬
Lord Shiva became happy with him and gave him a boon that ,¬
All those whom he touches with his hand will die,¬
And when he who wanted to examine it , came to touch Lord Shiva himself,¬
He ran fast and when he hid himself in the Shiva Linga fruit and was suffering,¬
¬

¬
When he who was lying on Aadhi sesha came to know of the problem of Lord Shiva,¬
He took the form of the Shining Mohini , attracted him and with passionate deceit deceived
him,¬

Lord Shiva who came to know of this news, ¬

¬
As soon as he knew the place of hiding , he came out and when he knew the method by
which he was saved,¬
That one who rides on the bull wanted to see that form and prayed to Lord Vishnu,¬
And without any problem when the lotus eyed one , took that form of illusion again,¬
And immediately Lord Shiva due to great passion lost his balance and seeing the pretty one
wondered greatly ¬

¬
Though he was god getting passionate he came near that wonderful lady ,¬
Thinking that the form of a lady of the lotus eyed Krishna was a real lady,¬
Getting deceived and being hit by the arrow of the god of love , ¬
That three eyed one getting passionate embraced that illusory beauty then and there.¬
