After darshan of Bhagwan Shiva at Thirumaraikkadu,Sambandar received a message to travel to Madurai.
During that time, Samanam was on the rise in the Pandya Kingdom.The Pandya King converted to Samanam.The Queen Mangaiyarkkarasi was a staunch Shiva devotee and was upset.

Kularchirai Nayanar ,Chief Minister of Pandya kingdom was in agony by the turn of events.Queen requested Kulachirai Nayanar to escort Thiru gnana Sambandar to Madurai.Kularchirai Nayanar met Thiru gnana Sambandar at Thirumaraikkadu & requested him to visit Madurai.
Sambandar agreed and was about to start with Kularchirai Nayanar.Appar himself has been persecuted by the Samanars in the past.He felt that Sambandar being a very young boy,samanars might harm him physically.Further,he told Sambandar astrologically,it is not right time to travel.
Appar tried to stop Sambandar from traveling in that period. Sambandar told Appar Naalum, Kolum(Grahams& Stars) should not trouble/cause any to a true devotee.Then he sang Kolaru Pathigam - pleads for Shiva's protection against the ill effects of planets.
Kolaru Pathigam- first song
வேயுறு தோளி பங்கன்விடமுண்ட கண்டன் மிகநல்ல வீணை தடவி
மாசறு திங்கள் கங்கை முடிமேல் அணிந்தென் உளமே புகுந்த அதனால்
ஞாயிறுதிங்கள் செவ்வாய் புதன் வியாழன் வெள்ளி சனிபாம் பிரண்டு முடனே
ஆசறு நல்ல நல்ல அவை நல்ல நல்ல அடியார் அவர்க்கு மிகவே.
வேயுறு தோளி பங்கன்விடமுண்ட கண்டன் மிகநல்ல வீணை தடவி
மாசறு திங்கள் கங்கை முடிமேல் அணிந்தென் உளமே புகுந்த அதனால்
ஞாயிறுதிங்கள் செவ்வாய் புதன் வியாழன் வெள்ளி சனிபாம் பிரண்டு முடனே
ஆசறு நல்ல நல்ல அவை நல்ல நல்ல அடியார் அவர்க்கு மிகவே.
There are 10 more verses.The significance is that those who chant it or those who listen to it will find that all the evils eventually turn to good. This is what is reiterated again and again in the verses.
Do chant or listen. Om Namah Shivaya 🙏
