[Lakshman]

Thanks rshankar for the quick response.

[PUNARVASU]

rshankar, I think it is 'maNi koL' mArbanE. It refers to the Kaustubha maNi which Lord Vishnu is adorning Himself with (wearing) on his chest.

[rshankar]

Thank you Punarvasu! I saw this just now.

[hariharan]

I think in the Anupallavi of the lyrics, it is 'kamala nAbhanE' instead of ' kamala nAyanE'. Kamala nAbha meaning Lord's navel is like lotus. And in the caranam, it is word "stuti" instead of 'sruti'. Please clarify and confirm.

[Lakshman]

Hariharan: You are right. I checked in the book and it is kamalanAbhanE. Thanks.

[PUNARVASU]

I think in the Anupallavi of the lyrics, it is 'kamala nAbhanE' instead of ' kamala nAyanE'. Kamala nAbha meaning Lord's navel is like lotus. And in the caranam, it is word "stuti" instead of 'sruti'. Please clarify and confirm.

Kamala nAbha means' one who has a lotus on his navel'. Lord Brahma arises from this lotus.

In the charaNam,I feel it should be 'shruti ' and not stuti. The sacred texts are called 'shruti, Smruthi , purAnam'. Shruti means those which are heard by the seers .

[Lakshman]

It is shruti.
