Thirupaavai Paasuram #11
Andal hints at Satsang in this Thirupaavai Paasuram #11. Masters who have attained Moksha use several methods to take others on the spiritual path… these paasurams are Andal’s way of doing the same.

Thirupaavai Paasuram #10
In Paasuram #10 we see a persistent Andal trying to get another friend who sleeps like Kumbhakarna to join in the Margazhi celebration ! With friends only “chatting” over WhatsApp this is a refreshing paasuram. 🙂
