p's divine form.



from the net.



parakAlan’s divine form. This form is narrated as the one with the spear that is supported by the shoulder, the hands which are worshipping emperumAn, the beautiful Urdhva puNdram, the mouth which is saying Om, sharp/slightly raised nose, cooling face, broad eyes, blackish hairs which are beautifully curled, ears which are perfectly built and which are slightly bent (to hear ashtAkshara mahAmanthram from emperumAn), well rounded neck, broad chest, strong shoulders, well shaped upper back, narrow waist, beautiful garlands, wonderful anklets, knees which reflect AzhwAr’s valour, slightly slanting divine lotus feet and the sword which will destroy all enemies. We can easily declare that kaliyan’s archA vigraham in thiruvAli-thirunagari is the most beautiful one in the entire creation.

 All AzhwArs have done vAchika kaingkaryam to emperumAn but only a few like thondaradipodi AzhwAr have done kAyika (physical) kaingkaryam to emperumAn. kaliyan also has done kAyika kaingkaryam like bhAgavatha thadiyAradhanam for 1008 srIvaishnavAs for an year and even continued it (bhAgavatha kaingkaryam is bhagavath kaingkaryam). AzhwAr built the thEr for ArAvamudhan in thirukkudanthai and even built  the madhil surrounding AlinAdan thiruchchutru in srI rangam. He also built the dasAvathAra sannidhi in srI rangam. Now in kaliyan aruL pAdu , the history of irApathu utsavam is given. This utsavam was started by AzhwAr as a gratitude towards Adhiguru, nammAzhwAr.
