http://alwargal.blogspot.com/p/madhurakavi-azhvar.html
Each soul is a vaishnava. Another surprising aspect to be noted in Madhurakavi Azhvar's approach is, all other Azhvars had their focus on the Ultimate Lord. But, Madhurakavi's focus was to treat Nammalvar greater than the Ultimate. The interaction between Namalvar and Madhurakavi Alvar was amazing, and known. Sri Madhurakavi Azhvar had written only 11 pasurams. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Prepare yourself before entering the temple. Prostrate paying obeisance to all devotees of the Lord.
