[Enna_Solven]

In the song "vAraNa mukhavA tuNai varuvAy", Koteeswara Iyer says he is about to begin writing a book. What book was he referring to?

kannal annaikkanda gAnAmuda nannUlai
unnum kavi ku~njaradAsan nAn
unnaruL koNDE paNNat-tuNindEn

[rshankar]

E_S he is talking about 'kandagAnAmRtam'.

[Lakshman]

rshankar: Isn't is kandagAnAmudam?

[Enna_Solven]

Is this a book of songs? Is it available on the web? thanks.

[Lakshman]

It should be available at KMBC. The book is the 72 melakarta songs volume.

[rshankar]

Lji if you post the lyrics, E_S will be able to understand, for IIRC, he invokes kandagAnAmudam (Lji, you are correct!)

[Enna_Solven]

rshankar, I have the lyrics of the song. I didn't realize that the book's actual title was in the song. thanks.
