Spiritual (Rs. 99).
The 12 Azhwars in the pantheon of Vaishnavism have propagated their message in Tamil, which is collectively known as the `Naalaayira Divya Prabhandham,' `Arulicheyal,' `Araiyar... . Sevai' and `Dravida Vedam.'
The hymns of God realised saints, arise from the depths of their souls and are outpourings, which in communion with the Lord find ecstatic, exquisite expression in Tamil. They glorify the auspicious attributes of the Almighty.
The doyen of Azhwars, Nammazhwar, has spelt out the Hindu regimen in the areas of art, literature, philosophy and religion.
In this C.D. volume the Thiruppallandu, Kanninum Siruthampu and Kovil Thiruvaimozhi composed by Sri Nammazhwar, have been recited by vidwans Malolakannan and Ranganathan with great involvement and religious fervour.

The oral expression by the sisters is governed by sweet melody and lyrical quality that establish an instant connection with the devotee.
