Abstract

Some devotional literatures appeared by portraying the Lord as the superior male and the soul as a woman to make people to realize the philosophy of surrender.  Bharati, who realized the aspiration of woman, and Thirumangaiyalwar (Parakalar), who realized the superiority of the Lord, created verses by assuming themselves as the heroine to express their devotion to Thirumal. The expression of love is manifested only in Separation unendurable.  The purpose of this study is to compare the part of Kannan Pattu, ‘Kannan – En Kaadhalan’ composed by Bharathiar with the Thirumadals ‘Siriya Thirumadal’ and ‘Periya Thirumadal’ composed by Thirumangaiyalwar to reveal the inseparable sorrows caused to both of them by the separation of Kannan.  The Descriptive Approach has been adopted for this research to express the sorrows of the departed heroines, the psychological approach to explore how the heroines’ love is felt, and the comparative approach to compare the two's feelings of separation.
