TAMIL SLOKANGAL - KANDAR SASHTI KAVACHAM

[chandru]

Sulamangalam sisters made this sloka - a unique experience.
Even music composers like Deva used the tune for their songs... !

Though it is religious, most of the sloka is used as dialogues in films and even the names of films like "kakka kakka".

shall I just post the sloka... part by part ...here ?

If it is out of the purview of our forum.. plz tell me how to delete this topic?

Hi!

there are different "kavachams" on Lord Murugan. The creator of the popular "Kanda Sashti Kavacham" is Devaraya swamigaL. He made this on praise of Thiruchendur murugan.

Normally, kavacham starts with calling the deity by their different names given to show their prowess and affection, and then proceed with asking them to protect each and every part of the body and then the outer things too... Then the sloka goes on with the happenings from "purANas", etc.
Finally, the total "saranAgathi" is observed.

We have many "kavachams", in sanskrit. "Sudarsana kavacham" is very popular among vaishnavites. Its small compared with some other kavahcams. But the simplicity makes it easy to chant.

I feel that I can post the sloka in English language here. I dont think we have Kanda Sashti Kavacham in English transliteration anywhere. (I am not a good surfer, though).

Let me start now and post the sloka, in small parts...

Wow!! Great going, Chandru!

And many thanks for posting these devotional verses.. they fill me with nostalgia, and take me back to my childhood when I listened to my mother reciting them as part of her daily prayers.
