NANDANAR |
|
| In Chola Desa,
there is the most holy temple at Chidambaram. It is the temple of God Nataraja. Nanda
wanted to worship Nataraja there. Chidambaram was far off. And Nanda was constantly putting off his visit to it, saying all the time, "may be tomorrow," "may be Tomorrow". So people started calling him the "man tomorrow". At last one day Nanda was able to go to Chidambaram. He was very happy to be there. But he could not go into the temple. He went round and round the temple instead.He became tired and slept outside the gate at night. God Nataraja appeared to him at night in his dream ' and. said, "Nanda, tomorrow you bathe in fire and come inside My temple!" |
