SUNDARAR

He is said to have sung thousands of such hymns of which only a hundred are available now. They are collected in the book by name Tirumurai.

After this event Sundarar visited several Siva shrines of Tamil Nad and sang on the presiding deities.

It is said that Sundarar was originally an attendant of Lord Siva at Kailasa. He fell in love with two maids of Paravti there.

As a result, all three were born as mortals to get married.

At Tiruvarur, Sundarar met a girl by name Paravayar. She was one of the maids from Kailasa whom he bad loved. They therefore fell in love at first sight.
