The month of Margazhi begins today.
For these 30 days, temples and devotees celebrate the glory of the Lord in the month of Margashira.

Why this month?
Krishna says in Bhagvad Gita, among months He is Maargashira.

The millenia-old Bhakti movement in the Tamil land found its supreme manifestation in the form of the 12 Azhvars and 63 Nayanmars.

Their literary contribution to Tamil, through the Tirumurais and NalayiraDivyaPrabhandham remains unparalleled. ImageImage
Andal was one of the 12 Azhvars, devoted to Vishnu, more specifically His form as Krishna.

She was the daughter of Vishnu Chithar, a devotee who is venerated as Periazhvar! Image
