293. OM PAAVANAYA NAMA: ॐ पावनाय नम:
Blesses sacred things like Ganges, with sanctity.
Like Madurakavi Alwar, Swami Nadathur Ammal [நடாதூர் அம்மாள்] was also born in Chitrai - Chitra [சித்திரை-சித்திரை]. We should realize the greatness of our Acharyas. Their birth days should be celebrated to spread the message to our progeny. He was born as Vatsya Varada Guru and was a very great devotee of Lord Varadaraja of Kanchi! He would offer milk to the Lord, in the night, with as much care as a mother would and so he was called by the Lord Himself, as 'amma' [அம்மா in Tamil, mother]. He thus became Swami Nadathur Ammal! The Lord is sacred and no blemishes could be attributed to Him. Thus the water used by lord Brahma to wash His Divine feet, when He raised His leg in Sri Trivikrama Avatar and when it reached Satya Loka, became sacred and flowed as Ganga! Lord Shiva realizing the sanctity of that water, received it on his head and got sanctified.
