Perumal or Perumaal ((タミル語:பெருமாள்)) also Thirumal ((タミル語:திருமால்)) is a Hindu deity who is most popular among Tamils and Tamil diaspora. Perumal is just another name of Lord Vishnu. ==Early mention in Sangam literature== Tamil Sangam literature (200BCE to 500CE) mentions mAyOn, or the dark one, as the supreme deity who creates, sustains and destroys the universe. Paripadal 3 describes the glory of Thirumal in the most superlative terms. Paripadal(3)by kaduvan iLaveyinanAr: "thIyinuL theRal nI poovinuL naaRRa nI kallinuL maNiyu nI sollinuL vaaymai aRaththinuL anbu nI maRaththinuL mainthu nI vEthaththu maRai nI boothaththu madhalu nI vencudar oLiyu nI thingaLuL aLiyu nI anaiththu nI anaiththinut poruLu nI" The last line states that Thirumal (Lord Vishnu) is supreme deity who is the inner controller (Antaryamin) of entire universe. This poem glorifies God Thirumal who is first mentioned in Vedas and later propounded by Alwars in Prabhandams and Sri Vaishnavaite Acharyas in various commentaries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thirumal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
