Pagal paththu and Raappaththu
Only during Pakalpatthu (10 days before Vaikunta Ekadesi), entire Divya prabandam is recited. During Irapatthu (10 days after Vaikunta Ekadesi), Thivoimozhi is recited. These 10 days (Irapatthu) utsavam is also known as Thiruvoimozhi Thirunal. During entire Dhanur-masam, Thiruppalliyezhuchi & Thiruppavai are chanted. Starting with Kurattalvan's Thirunakshatram (Thai Hastam), regular recitation of Divya Prabandham is resumed.
Thus originally started as ten days festival by Sri Thirumangai Azhwar and was later modified as Twenty two days (+one day for Thirunedunthandagam) by Swami Emberumanar.
Therefore the Anadhyayana period is the time when Swami Nammzhwar is on transit to Srirangam. Therefore, our Poorvacharyas might thought, it is not appropriate for us to recite, as the entire 4000 Pranbhandhams was considered as the Pranbhandhams of Swami Nammazhwar (Nathnakku Nalayiramum alithan vazhiye).
Anadhyayanam Origin:
Explanation on the origin of Anadhyayanam
Thirumangai Azhwar started the tradition of Adhyayana Uthsavam in Srirangam. When Thirumangai Azhwar started this it was only for ten days. That is what we call it now Irappathu or Thiruvaimozhi Thirunaal. During this time, Thirumangai Mannan used to bring Swami Nammazhwar's thirumeni from Azhwar Thirunagari to Srirangam. For this Thirumangai Mannan will start from Srirangam on the day of Karthigai Karthigai (his own thirunakshatram). Even till today this tradition is followed in most of the temples where the Kattiyakarar or the Sthalathar who has the traditional rights alongwith temple's Paricharakas goes to Swami Nammazhwar's shrine and read the message from the Perumal.The day Swami Nammazhwar arrives in SriRangam was always the Sukla Paksha Ekadasi (Sri Vaikunta Ekadasi).On this auspicious day, Swami Nammazhwar was adorned with Muthangi and Namperumal with Rathnangi. Starting from Ekadasi, next nine days, Sri Thirumangai Azhwar arranged to recite Swami Nammazhwar's prabhandhams in front of Namperumal.
After the days of Sri Thirumangai Azhwar, the practice was slowly stopped. It was Swami Ramanujar, who started the practice again. (Some may dispute that Sri Nathamunigal restarted this.) After Thirumangai Mannan, due to practical difficulties, a Thirumeni of Swami Nammazhwar must have been installed in Srirangam temple. And Sri Ramanujar added ten days before the Irapaththu and called them Pagal Paththu, and arranged that during these ten days Prabhandhams of other Azhwars should be recited. Also Sri Ramanuja added one more day for the Iyarpa. Because, Sri Thirumangai Azhwar started it, the day before the Pagal Paththu Uthsavam first day, Namperumal listens to Thirunedunthandagam of Sri Thirumangai Azhwar.
Thus originally started as ten days festival by Sri Thirumangai Azhwar and was later modified as Twenty two days (+one day for Thirunedunthandagam) by Swami Emberumanar.
Therefore the Anadhyayana period is the time when Swami Nammzhwar is on transit to Srirangam. Therefore, our Poorvacharyas might thought, it is not appropriate for us to recite, as the entire 4000 Pranbhandhams was considered as the Pranbhandhams of Swami Nammazhwar (Nathnakku Nalayiramum alithan vazhiye).
Second thing, Nalayiram is considered as The Dravida Vedam. For the Vedas, there is a specific period (during a year) called Adhyayana kalam and there is a time when you should not recite Vedas (Anadhyayana kalam). To give that samyam (equality), our Acharyas might have decided to have this Adhyayana and Anadhyayana kalams.
Anadhyayana kalam starts during Karthigai Karthigai and normally ends on Thai Astham (Sri Koorathazhwan's thirunakshatram). But in temple's like Sri Parthasarathy temple the day next to Iyarpa satrumarai, is the day to start ThirupPallandu. Even though every thing started in SriRangam, we have to follow them. Since SriRangam is our SriVaishnava Rajadhani (Capital) all the great instructions and the practices started by none other than Sri Ramanuja himself, have to be followed by all the Sri Vaishanva temples.
