#threadseries #Madurai

Story 10- it about reincarnation of Malayathuvaja Pandyan by Bhagwan Shiva as Sundara Pandyan to fulfill the wish Kanchanamala devi & how they both got ShivalokaPrapti/Moksha

As requested by Bhagwan Shiva /Sundara pandya water from all 7 oceans confluenced in a pond in Madurai.Sundara Pandyan informed Meenakshi devi &asked her to take her mother Kanchanamala there to fulfill her wish to take bath/snan in oceans.
Kanchanamala was delighted to know this

Then Kanchanamala called upon scholars to know about the rules of taking snan in ocean.They replied that rules demanded that women should take bath/snan in ocean holding hand of either her husband or son.If that's not possible then had to hold tail of a calf.Kanchanamala felt sad

She had no other option except for holding calf's tail as she doesn't have son & her husband Malayathuvaja Pandyan was already dead.Meenkashi devi got to know about this & informed the same to Bhagwan Shiva.Shiva thought about Malayathuvaja Pandyan who was in swarglok.

The moment Shiva thought, Malayavatuvaja Pandyan decended on earth in a vimana.He was very delighted to meet his daughter Meenakshi & Son in law Sundareswarar.Kanchanamala was not able to believe her eyes.Bhagwan asked her to take snan holding hand of Malayathuvaja Pandyan

They both were very happy.After Malayathuvaja Pandyan &Kanchanamala took snan,they got mukti.A vimana decended and took both of them.They prayed to Shiva Bhagwan for giving them Moksha.

Next Thiruvilayadal is about birth of Ukkira Pandyan-son of Meenakshi devi &Sundareswarar.

Will post nxt #Thiruvilayadal next week.
