The Tiruppavai (Tamil:திருப்பாவை) is a collection of thirty stanzas (paasurams) written in Tamil by AaNDaL (also known as Nachiyar), in praise of the Lord VishNu. It is part of Divya Prabandha, a work of the twelve Alvars, and is important part of Tamil literature....
Kodhai Devi or Goda Devi/AaNDaL incarnated (Goddess Lakshmi) on earth in the 98th year after the beginning of the Kali Era (3102 BC). She performed a wonderful vratham or vow called Dhanurmasa vratham to tell us that, by practicing this vratham, one can attain all materialistic happiness along with the eternal bliss. The period, from when the sun moves into the constellation of Dhanur-rasi or Sagittarius and until it moves out to the constellation of Makara-rasi or Capricorn is known as Dhanurmasam. In Thiruppavai, AaNDaL gives a universal call to all people to recite the name and glories of Lord Vishnu....
