Author: தோழி / Labels:

Boganathar, who had worshipped Pazhani’s Dandayuthapaani was considered to be born in Vetkovar caste. The Dandayuthapaani statue presently at Pazhani temple was said to be made by him, using combinations of nine arsenic materials.

Bogar had invented a vehicle which can travel in space. He went to China where he did preaching and was called as “Po-Yang” by them.

சித்தான சித்து முனி போக நாதன்
siththaana siththu muni Boga Nathan
சிறந்த பதினெண் பேரில் உயயர்ந்த சீலன்
sirantha pathinen peril uyarntha seelan
கத்தநேனும் காலாங்கி நாதர் சீடன்
kaththanenum kaalaangi naathar seedan
கனமான சீனபதிக் குகந்த பாலன்
kanamaana seenapathik ugantha baalan
முத்தான் அதிசயங்கள் யாவற்றும்தான்
muththaana athisayangal yaavatrumthaan
மூதலகில் கண்ட முதல்வன் சித்தன்
moothulagil kanda muthalvan siththan
நித்தமுமே மாசில்லாக் கடவுள் தன்னை
niththamume maasilla kadavul thannai
மாநிலத்தில் மறவாத போகர் தானே
maanilaththil maravaatha Bogar thane.

-அகத்தியர்(Agathiyar).
