16TH THIRUPPAVAI

Dear Andal Goshti Devotees, Today is the 16th paasuram of Thiruppavai.Nayaganay ninra Nandagopanudaya

Sree Andal with her Sakhis goes to Nandagopans bungalow to wake up the Gate keeper.They address him as The lucky person who is taking care of the village head Nandagopan just it is nice of calling him by profession. They felt immensely happy to see the .decorated. door with creepers and it was a welcoming sign to get inside for them and then thinking like that,woke up the gate keeper.Then he immediately asked who r you all.In turn They replied Kindly open the door decorated with bells . They continued to say we r all young gopis.so you need not fear. For that he  replied as Poothane came in the form of a young gopi.Even Vathsasuran came in a small form.For that Sri Andal replies as we r Sirumiyarom. In turn the Gate keeper asks for what job u have come.in return Sree Andal Goshti replies we want Parai for our Nonbu (Vratham).

Then the conversation continues as He is sleeping and you all may come later. In reply Sree Andal says you need not bother.He the Krishna has promised to give us yesterday itself.Then the gate keeper asks whether you all have come with good thoughts.In reply They say we have come pure and blemishless. He is SARVASVAM AND ALL IN ALL. In spite of listening to them he enjoyed talking to them and  prolonged the conversation.smelling some negative reply  told in chorus Do Not Refuse our request.Seeing the devoted Bhagavathas he just got scared thinking about the Jaya Vijayas who prevented the Sanakadhiyar from entering the sanctum Sanctorium got Shapam(curse) from the Rishis.Then he gave permission to them to open the door. Then Sree Andal says that The doors r more protective for Krishna than you.so you only open the door as we can not open.For doing Nonbu how much hardship Sree Andal has to undergo.So Sree Andal is the Greatest of the Greatest.So we all shall follow Her Footsteps to attain Eternal Bliss.
