Abstract

In Sitrilakkiyam, it contained 96 categories, which were mentioned by Veeramamunivar’s Sathuragarathi. The poems are sung with one of the lords, kings, vallas, or talaivans as the leader. When devotional literature began to flourish in the Middle Ages, various literatures appeared. Most of the short stories were created with themes of God's experience and love. Kuravanchi, Pillaithamil, Parani, Kalambagam, Thoothu, Pallu, Kowai, Anthathi, etc. are notable among the Sitrilakkiyam literatures. The purpose of this article is to examine the excellence of Tirukkutralak Kuravanchi and the superiority of Shaivism among them.
