Dear Members , While trying to condense the history behind the 36,000 Eeedu grantham , I have left the impression that this grantham was created anew by Vadakku Thiruveethi PiLLai (VTP ) . As Sri Varadhan has kindly pointed out in a private mail , VTP transcribed the kalakshEpams of his AchArya and therefore it is accurate to call Eedu as NampiLLai eedu . The AchAryA was unhappy with VTP for writing without his permission unlike PeriyavAcchAn PiLLai . The angry AchArya kept it out of circulation until divine intervention made it available to us . Thus we are blessed with Nampillai's Eedu vyAkyAnam . Thanks Sri Varadhan , V.Sadagopan
