Lord Krishna ignores her and, in this piece, she determines that she will undertake a ‘Madal’ Mudumbai Elamanur Sri U. Ve. Rangan Devarajan introduces the concept of the ‘Madal’, how Thirumangai Azhvar narrates this tale and provides a basic introduction to the work in this recorded pravachanam. It is meant to be ‘an easy introduction’ to this chapter of Thirumangai AzvAr’s writing. The chanting of Siriya Thirumadal:    • Siriya Thirumadal - சிறிய திருமடல்
