Cilapathikaram - Ilanko Adigalசிலப்பதிகாரம்-இளங்கோ அடிகள்-'The following works of art and literature are among themost remarkable contributions of the Tamil creative genius to the world'scultural treasure and should be familiar to the whole world and admired andbeloved by all in the same way as the poems of Homer, the dramas ofShakespeare, the pictures of Rembrandt, the cathedrals of France and thesculptures of Greece. The epical poemCilappathikaram, which by its 'baroque splendour', and by the charm andmagic of its lyrical parts belongs to the epic masterpieces of the world.'
(- Czech Professor Dr. Kamil Zvelebilin Tamil Culture - Vol. October, 1956)Cilapathikaram, the story of Jewelled Anklets, is rooted in the ordinarylives of the early Tamils of the Pandyan Kingdom in the first century A.D. Andis regarded by many as the national epic of the Tamil people.Professor A.L. Basham writing in ' The Wonder that was India' comments thatCilapathikaram has ' a grim force and splendour unparalled elsewhere in Indianliterature - it is imbued with both the ferocity of the early Tamils and theirstern respect for justice, and incidentally, it throws light on early Tamilpolitical ideas.'
' Today, some quarters may regard Kannagi as a suicide killerand a terrorist.That which follows is taken from the excellent translation by ProfessorA.L.Basham:'Kovalan, the son of a wealthy merchant in Kavirippattinam, marriedKannagi, the lovely daughter of another merchant. For some time they livedtogether happily, until, at a festival at the royal court, Kovalan met thedancer Madavi and fell in love with her. He bought her favours and in hisinfatuation forgot Kannagi and his home.Gradually he spent all his wealth on the dancer. At last he was penniless,and returned repentantly to his uncomplaining wife.
Their only fortune was aprecious pair of anklets, which she gave to him willingly. With these astheir capital they decided to go to the great city of Madurai, where Kovalanhoped to recoup his fortunes by trade.' 'On their arrival at Madurai they found shelter in a cottage, and Kovalanwent to the market to sell one of Kannagi's anklets. But the queen ofNedunjeliyan, king of the Pandyas, had just been robbed of a similar ankletby a wicked court jeweller.The jeweller happened to see Kovalan with Kannagi's anklet, andimmediately seized it and informed the King. Guards were sent to apprehendKovalan, who was then killed on the King's orders.
When the news was broughtto Kannagi, she went out into the town, with her eyes ablaze with anger,carrying the remaining anklet in her hand as proof of her husband'sinnocence.' At last the patron goddess of the city interceded with Kannagi, and sheagreed to withdraw her curse, and the fire abated. Weak with loss of bloodfrom her self-amputated breast, Kannagi struggled to a hill outside thecity, where after a few days she died, and was reunited with Kovalan inHeaven.
Meanwhile the news of her death spread throughout the TamilLand. She was deified, temples were raised and festivals held in her honour,and she became the patron goddess of wifely loyalty and chastity.' 'Chaste women of Madurai, listen to me!Today my sorrows cannot be matched.Things which should never have happened have befallen me.How can I bear this injustice?' All the folk of the rich city of Maduraisaw her, and were moved by her grief and affliction.In wonder and sorrow they cried:'Wrong that cannot be undone has been done to this lady!' 'Our King's straight sceptre is bent!What can this mean?Lost is the glory of the King Over Kings,the Lord of the Umbrella and Spear!'
'A new and a mighty goddesshas come before us,in her hand a golden anklet!What can this mean?' 'This woman afflicted and weepingfrom her lovely dark-stained eyesis as though filled with godhead!What can this mean?' 'Thus, raising loud accusing voices,the people of Madurai befriended and comforted her,and among the tumultuous throngsome showed her her husband's body'She, the golden vine, beheld him,but her he could not see.'
Then the red-rayed sun folded his fiery armsand hid behind the great mountain,and the wide worldwas veiled in darkness.' But he saw not the agony of her griefas she mourned in sorrow and wrath.'
Are there women here? Are there womenwho could bear such wrongdone to their wedded lords?Are there women here? Are there such women?' Are there good men here? Are there good menwho cherish their childrenand guard them with care?Are there men here? Are there such men?' 'Is there a god here?
Is there a godin this city of Madurai, where the sword of a kinghas slain an innocent man?Is there a god here? Is there a god?'
'Lamenting thus she clasped her husband's breast,and it seemed that he rose to his feet and said,'The full-moon of your face has faded,'and he stroked her face with his hands.She fell to the ground, sobbing and crying,and clasped her Lord's feet with her bangled hands;and he left behind his human formand went, surrounded by the gods.' I will not join my lordtill my great wrath is appeased!I will see the cruel King,and ask for his explanation!' 'And she stood on her feet,her large eyes full of tears,and, wiping her eyes,she went to the gate of the palace.' 'Then came a cry from the gate:'Ho, Gatekeeper! Ho, Gatekeeper!Ho, Gatekeeper of the King who has lost wisdom,whose evil heart has swerved from justice!!Tell the King that a woman with an anklet,an anklet from a pair of tinkling anklets,a woman who has lost her husband,is waiting at the gate.'
'And the gatekeeper went to the King and said:'A woman waits at the gate.She is not Korravai, goddess of victory,with triumphant spear in her hand.Filled with anger, boiling with rage,a woman who has lost her husband,an anklet of gold in her hand,is waiting at the gate.' 'Kannagi was then admitted to the King's presence.' Cruel King, this I must say.' My Lord Kovalan cameto Madurai to earn wealth,and today you have slain himas he sold my anklet.' 'Lady,' said the King,'it is kingly justiceto put to deathan arrant thief.'
'Then Kannagi showed her anklet to the King.On comparing it very carefully with the remaining anklet of the pairbelonging to the Queen, he realised that Kovalan had been innocent.When he saw it the parasol fell from his headand the sceptre trembled in his hand.' 'I am no king,' he said,'who have heeded the words of the goldsmith.' 'I am the thief. For the first timeI have failed to protect my people.Now may I die!' And he fell to the ground, dead.Kannagi said to the Queen:'If I have always been true to my husbandI will not suffer this city to flourish,but I will destroy it as the King is destroyed!Soon you will see that my words are true!' 'And with these words she left the palace,and cried out through the city, ' Men and womenof great Madurai of the four temples,listen!
Listen you gods in heaven!' 'Listen to me, you holy sages!I curse the capital of the Kingwho so cruelly wrongedmy beloved lord!' With her own hand she tore the left breastfrom her body.Thrice she surveyed the city of Madurai,calling her curse in bitter agony.Then she flung her fair breast on the scented street.' And the burning mouth of the Sire-god openedas the gods who guarded the city closed their doors.'
The high priest, the astrologer and the judges,the treasurer and the learned councillors,the palace servants and the maids,stood silent and still as painted pictures.' The elephant-riders and horsemen,the charioteers and the foot-soldierswith their terrible swords, all fled from the firewhich raged at the gate of the royal palace.' And the street of the sellers of grain,the street of the chariots, with its bright-coloured garlands,and the four quarters of the four classeswere filled with confusion and flamed like a forest on fire.' In the street of the singing girlswhere so often the tabor had soundedwith the sweet gentle flute and the tremulous harp.the dancers, whose halls were destroyed, cried out:Whence comes this woman! Whose daughter is she?A single woman, who has lost her husband,has conquered the evil King with her anklet,and has destroyed our city with fire!' 'Professor C.R.on Cilapthikaram(சிலப்பதிகாரம்)GeneralSilappathikAram was written by iLangO atikaL (இளங்கோ அடிகள்), a Jain monk. Itcontains 3 chapters (புகார்க் காண்டம், மதுரைக் காண்டம், வஞ்சிக் காண்டம்) and atotal of 5270 lines.
Anyone who has read the original text of this epic couldnot help marvel at its author, iLangO atikaL (இளங்கோ அடிகள்) who was able tomaintain the tempo and passions associated with human interactions throughoutthe work. More surprising is his comprehension and handling of purely subjective(அகம்) topics such as love, romance and separation which, only some one directlyinvolved in family life could relate to. Unlike other Thamizh classics, there isless confusion regarding the age of SilappathikAram which is reckoned as themiddle of the fifth century.
This being so, it is highly creditable that iLangOatikaL had the originality at the time to compose a work which had the literarymerit and emotional appeal of contemporary fictions in the world.BackgroundIt is said that Senkuttuvan (சேரன் செங்குட்டுவன்), a ChEra King, accompaniedby his brother, iLangO (இளங்கோ) and his friend, the poet Mathuraik KUlavANikanSAtthanAr (மதுரை கூலவாணிகன் சாத்தனார்))went to see the scenic beauty of thecountry side near the river, PEriyARu (பேரியாறு). He then heard a story fromneighbouring villages of a woman with a single breast who sat down in penanceunder a vEngai (வேங்கை) tree without food or water for 15 days and then died.Intrigued and moved by the story, ChEran Senkuttuvan yearned to know more aboutthe details. His friend, SAtthanAr, the poet, responded by saying that the nameof the woman was KaNNaki worshipped as the Goddess of Chastity (பத்தினித் தெய்வம்)in the villages. He narrated the story that led to the tragedy. ILangO atikaLwas then asked by the King to write the story of KaNNaki so that her name willbe perpetuated for the benefit of mankind.Story in BriefKOvalan (கோவலன்), a prosperous grain merchant in the ChOzha capital of PukAr(புகார், காவிரிப்பூம்பட்டினம்) got married to the equally affluent KaNNaki (கண்ணகி)and the two lived happily for a while. When the beautiful MAdhavi (மாதவி)belongingto an unchaste class came to PukAr to give a dance recital in the ChOzha KingKarikAlan's (கரிகாலன்) court, KOvalan became infatuated with her beauty,glamour and artistic talents. Ultimately he deserted KaNNaki and moved in withMAdhavi who, from that point on, led a chaste life and even bore his daughter,MaNimEkalai (மணிமேகலை).
Silapathikaram Poem In Tamil With Meaning
KOvalan slowly began to distrust MAdhavi, becomingjealous of her public appearances as an artist and conscious of her adoration byeveryone. Having lost his money in the pursuit of happiness with his mistress,KOvalan returned to KaNNaki who welcomed him home.
They decided to move toMathurai, the PANdiyan capital to recover their fortune.KaNNaki had a pair of anklets (சிலம்புகள்) filled with rubies which she saidcould be used to start their lives again. In order to sell the anklets KOvalanwent to a local goldsmith who had already stolen the Queen's anklets. Seizingthe opportunity, the goldsmith informed the King, n^edunchezhiyan (நெடுஞ்செழியன்)that KOvalan was the thief.
Without proper enquiry KOvalan was committed todeath by the King. KaNNaki got infuriated at the news of her husband's death andopenly challenged the King's judgement. She proved that her anklets containedrubies while those of the Queen contained only pearls. Realizing his folly thePANdiya King died instantaneously. The Queen also died later. KaNNaki's ragecould not yet be stopped.
She cut off one of her breasts and threw it at thecity cursing it to burn with the exception of brahmins, ascetics, cows, chastewomen, old people and children, if her chastity meant anything. The city burnedas expected and KaNNaki moved to the ChEra country, sat down under a tree inpenance for a fortnight before dying.Salient Features of SilappathikAramEquanimity of iLangO atikaL (இளங்கோ அடிகள்)The outstanding feature of SilappathikAram is the equanimity of its author,iLangO atikaL towards religion, society and politics. Though he was a Jain monk,iLangO atikaL did not use the epic to spread the principles of Jainism.
30 Dec The ancient Tamil epic Silapathikaram narrates the story of Kovalan and There will be English translations throughout the performance so. 2 Nov On the contrary, Silappathikaram or the story of the jeweled anklet in Tamil is the first and foremost epic depicting the story of common men in. He wrote: ‘I have no hesitation in pressing for English editions, for the reason that Literally the title means ‘the story that centres around a silambu or anklet’.
