THE ENCHANTING EYES


THE ENCHANTING EYES -



There was this wrestler called 'uRangga villi dhaasan'.
'uRanggavillai' is one of the titles of Lakshmanan.
'Sundaravilli' is the elder brother.

Our dhaasan was obsessive and passionate about
his wife to whom he was very very much attached.

One day, Ramanuja asked him why he was so much
attached to his wife.

uRanggavilli told him that it was ther astounding
beauty; especially those breath-taking eyes which
were totally captivating.

So Ramanuja threw a challenge to him:
"If I showed you a pair of eyes which are more
captivating than your wife's eyes, would you discard
that obsession?"

"If you can show them....", scoffed our friend.
Ramanuja asked him to follow and took him straight
to the sanctum sanctorum of Thiruvarangganathan.

He pointed.
uRanggavilli dhaasan saw....
Those eyes......
Beyond any description.
Nor comparison.
Thus uRanggavilli dhaasan lost himself and became
a monumental model of the prabhathi margam that
Ramanuja was striving to show the world.

Well.....
Such were the eyes.
