Thirugnana Sambandar : ウィキペディア英語版
Sambandar

Sambandar (also called Thirugyana Sambandar, Tirugnana Sambanthar, Campantar, Champantar, Jnanasambandar, Gnanasambandar) was a young Saiva poet-saint of Tamil Nadu who lived around the 7th century CE.
He is one of the most prominent of the sixty-three Nayanars, Tamil Saiva bhakti saints who lived between the sixth and the tenth centuries CE. Sambandar's hymns to Shiva were later collected to form the first three volumes of the ''Tirumurai'', the religious canon of Tamil Saiva Siddhanta. He was a contemporary of Appar, another Saiva saint.〔''Encyclopaedia of Jainism, Volume 1, page 5468''〕
==Life==

Information about Sambandar comes mainly from the ''Periya Puranam'', the eleventh-century Tamil book on the Nayanars that forms the last volume of the ''Tirumurai'', along with the earlier ''Tiruttondartokai'', poetry by Sundarar and Nambiyandar Nambi's ''Tiru Tondar Tiruvandadi''. A Sanskrit hagiography called ''Brahmapureesa Charitam'' is now lost. The first volumes of the ''Tirumurai'' contain three hundred and eighty-four poems of Sambandar, all that survive out of a reputed more than 10,000 hymns.〔''The History and Culture of the Indian People: The classical age, page 330''〕
According to the ancient texts, Sambandar was born to Sivapada Hrudiyar and his wife Bhagavathiar who lived in Sirkazhi in what is now Tamil Nadu. They were Saivite brahmins. When Sambandar was three years old his parents took him to the Shiva temple where Shiva and his consort Parvati appeared before the child. His father saw drops of milk on the child's mouth and asked who had fed him, whereupon the boy pointed to the sky and responded with the song ''Todudaya Seviyan'', the first verse of the ''Tevaram''. At his investiture with the sacred thread, at the age of seven, he is said to have expounded the Vedas with great clarity. Sambandar attained liberation (mukti) in "Visaka Nakshtara" in the Tamil month of "Visakam" at the age of sixteen soon after his marriage.
In the first half of the seventh century, apart from Saivism, Jainism and Buddhism were among the popular faiths in south India. The Pandyan King Koon Pandiyan had converted to Jainism, which Sambandar had long expressed opposition to. His queen Mangayarkkarasiyar invited Sambandhar after the king fell ill.〔''Hymns of the Tamil Śaivite saints, page 11''〕 According to a Saivite legend, Sambandar performed music for the king, which cured the king's disease. Later, Sambandar reconverted the king back to Shaivism.〔 The legend goes on to state that with Sambandar's consent, the king massacred around 8000 Jains.
The ancient texts say that Samabandar brought two people back to life by singing hymns to them. One of those resurrected was the daughter of a business man, who offered her to Sambandar in marriage. He declined due to knowledge that he would soon die.
