Today is Vaigasi Moolam. #Gurupoojai (day of mukthi) of 4 of the 63 Nayanmars - #Thirugnanasambar, #MurugaNayanar, #Thiruneelanakkar, #ThiruneelakandaYazhpanar. How did 4 Nayanmars attain mukthi on the same day? What is the story behind this? A thread
Gnanasambandar was the son of Sivapaadha Irudaiyar in Sirkali. When he was about 3, he saw his father going to the temple tank to offer his oblutions. The child followed him crying. His father made him sit on the steps as he immersed himself in the water to perform his duties.
Not seeing his father, the child looked up to the temple tower and cried “Amme! Appa”. On hearing the child's piteous call, Mother Goddess Parvathy offered him divine milk in a golden bowl and fed the child. The child stopped crying.
