From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thevaram (Tamil: தேவாரம்) refers to the collection of verses sung on the primary god of the Shivite sect of Hindu religion, Lord Shiva by three Tamil poets (known as Saiva Kuruvars) - Thirugnana Sambanthar (aka Sambanthar), Thirunavukkarasar (aka Appar) and Sundaramoorthy Nayanar (aka Sundarar). The former two is believed to have lived around the 7th century AD while the latter around 8th century AD. All songs in Thevaram are believed to be in sets of 10 songs (called pathikam in Tamil).
[edit] Thiruvasagam
Manickavasagar is considered the 4th in the line, whose verses are classified as Thiruvasagam. There is a saying that "Thiruvasagathuku urugar, oru vasagathukum orugar" meaning the person who doesnot budge for thiruvasagam wont budge for anything else.
[edit] Padal Petra Stalam
There are around 274 temples[1] that are revered by the verses of Saiva Kuravars. The list is as shown below.
