♦ Comprehensive account of the book Sri Andal Kalyanam:

The book Sri Andal Kalyanam tells the beautiful and spiritual tale of Goddess Andal, the only woman among the twelve Alvars, who were Vaishnavite poet-saints from South India. Andal is revered as an embodiment of Bhudevi (Goddess Earth) and is known for her unwavering devotion to Lord Vishnu, notably Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam. Every year, during the Tamil month of Margazhi and in Panguni for her celestial marriage, her life and holy marriage are commemorated and reenacted through devotional ceremonies and celebrations.

Periyazhwar, a devout Vaishnava saint, discovered Andal, who was first known as Goda Devi, as a baby beneath a Tulasi plant in the temple garden, according to the book. Raised in a very religious environment, Andal spent his childhood surrounded by the hymns, tales, and texts of Lord Vishnu. Her spiritual yearning found expression in poetry, particularly in the Tiruppavai and Nachiyar Tirumozhi, which are now fundamental to Tamil devotional literature.

Andal's devotion grew into a mystical and heavenly love for Lord Ranganatha, whom she saw as her eternal spouse, as she grew older. She adorned herself with the garlands meant for the deity—an act of pure love that at first worried her father but was later accepted as divine will when the Lord himself favored the garlands she was wearing.

The divine wedding, or Sri Andal Kalyanam, where Lord Ranganatha embraced Andal as his bride, is the high point of her existence. According to tradition, Andal was brought to Srirangam in a magnificent ceremony, where she joined the deity in the sanctum sanctorum, representing the union of the soul with the Supreme.

This transcendent occasion is depicted in the Sri Andal Kalyanam book through elaborate rites, beautiful poetry, and devout hymns. Because it includes stotras, mantras, and shlokas recited during the kalyanam ritual, it is both a practical devotional manual and a spiritual narrative.

This account of Andal is more than just a love story; it's a celebration of the purest form of bhakti—the devotion in which the devotee merges with the divine. Readers are invited into this sacred journey by the book, which allows them to experience the purity, love, and surrender that characterized Andal's life. Every devotee loves this stotra book because it is both culturally enriching and spiritually inspiring.
