In the Tiruppugazh, Manaiaval nahaikka, Arunagirinather speaks of how his wife, parents and relatives were utterly disgusted with him and ridicule from friends and others in town impelled him to try to end his life. The above story, though popular contradicts the poet's own version of his story. He considered jumping to his death from the temple tower but according to legends, the God Murugan himself prevented him from committing suicide, cured his leprosy, showed him a path of reform and piety, initiated him to create devotional songs for the benefit of mankind. He decided to end his life, went to a temple and hit his head against the pillars and steps, begging for forgiveness.
To prevent Arunagiri from committing suicide, his sister said that he should sell her in order to have money, upon hearing which Arunagiri realised how selfish he had been. Arunagiri said he was going to kill himself because of this. There came a time when his sister had no money to meet his demands for dissipation. It was said that since he was enjoying his life in dissipation, he started to suffer from leprosy and because of it people started to avoid him. His sister always gave whatever she earned to make her brother happy, and he frequently visited the devadasis. Legends claim that Arunagiri was attracted to the pleasures of the flesh and spent his youth in pursuing a life of debauchery.
His father died soon after his birth and his pious mother and sister instilled in him, their cultural and religious traditions.
The Bhagavata Purana, for example, is a Krishna-related text associated with the Bhakti movement in Hinduism. It developed rapidly in various Hindu traditions after 12th century in India, possibly in response to the arrival of Islam in India.ĭevotional ideas have inspired many popular texts and saint-poets in India. The term also refers to a movement, spearheaded by the Alvars and the Nayanars, around the second half of the 1st millennium AD around the gods Vishnu (Vaishnavism), Brahma (Brahmanism), Shiva (Shaivism), and Devi (Shaktism). Thus, devotion requires a connection between the devotee and the deity. In ancient texts such as the Shvetashvatar Upanishad, the word directly means participation, devotion, and love for any endeavor, whereas, in the Bhagavad Gita, it refers to one of the possible paths of spirituality and to the path of devotion, such as salvation.īhakti in Indian religions is “emotional nepotism”, especially for an individual god or spiritual thoughts. It was originally used in Hinduism, referring to devotion and love by a devotee to an individual deity or a representational God. Bhakti literally means “ attachment, fellowship, loveliness, reverence, faith, love, devotion, worship, purity“.
