SVS 329 [Krodhaha -314] (34.6)

314. OM KRODHAGHNE NAMA: क्रोधघ्ने नम:
Got His anger quenched, in Sri Parashu Rama Avatara, after killing Kshatriyas of this Earth, in Twenty One generations, with His axe.

On the Fourth Day, the Lord appears as Sri Paramapada Nathan, along with Sri Ubhaya Nacchiyars. He is seated on Adisesha.



One leg is folded and the other is stretched. Till last Divine name, that is from Divine name 301 to 313, the Lord's appearance on the tender banyan leaf [Sri Vata Patra Sayee] was explained. From now on till Divine name 321, Eight Divine names describe Sri Parashu Rama Avatar. He took His axe weapon and killed all Kshatriyas [Rulers] of 21 generations. Krodhagna means anger suppressed. After killing Kshatriyas in 21 Generations, Kashyap Prajapti, requested Him to discard anger and so suppressed His anger. He threw away His axe in the ocean and reclaimed that area as His and it is Kerala today. The Lord as Sri Paramapada Nathan, arrives at Vahana Mandapam, and strolls with very little ornaments. At that time, safron is made into a paste and applied on His body. This is called 'vizhudhu kaapu [விழுது காப்பு]'. When worshiping here, we may wonder, whether this Lord could ever be angry?! In the evening the Lord is in procession in Chandra Prabha, and showers coolness - opposed to the quality in Sri Parashu Rama Avatar. On return, Nel alavai utsavam [நெல் அளவை உத்ஸவம்] is celebrated, when auditing of income and expenditure is done!
