    is believed they sang their hymns without entering the Temple - not
    to keep their feet on the soil on which Karaikkalammayar kept her

    That is what you RIGHTLY POINTED OUT EARLIER also..

    It is PARVATHI @ UMA's special attention which helped SUNDARA &
    SAMBANDAR became closer to Siva !

  • It reminds me of St.Ramnuja crawling the mountain of thirumala
    stating the whole mountain as Sri Venkatesa himself.

    It takes only people such as Sambandar or Ammayar or Ramanujar to see
    thus.
    Just like in the movie matrix where Neo sees 0's and 1's, these holy
    ones see the Absolute in everything.

Howdy, Stranger!
