Tiruppavai – English | by GiriAus Publications

• Thiruppavai is a collection of Tamil devotional religious hymns credited to the female poet-saint Andal (also known as Nachiyar, Kodhai or Goda Devi). She is regarded as Bhudevi's earthly manifestation, having assumed the form of Periyalvar's daughter. She is alleged to have fasted (a ""Paavai nonbu"") during the month of ""Margazhi"" (Dhanurmaasam) and written 30 religious hymns at the age of 5 in order to achieve Perumal.
• Thirty stanzas (paasurams) in praise of Thirumal make up the poem (a manifestation of Lord Vishnu).
• It is a portion of Divya Prabandha, a compilation of the writings of the twelve Alvars, which is regarded as a key work in Tamil literature's devotional genre.
• In Thiruppavai, Andal gives a universal call for everyone to recite the name and glory of Lord Vishnu. This book is printed in bold English font for ease of reading.
