Pasurams 2032–2051 of 4000
Thirukkurunthandagam is a set of twenty pasurams in the shorter thandagam metre, in which Thirumangai Azhwar turns inward — the Lord as light, as nectar, as the one treasure the heart can hold.
Its compact verses are prized in recitation for their music, and form a bridge between the Azhwar's grand temple hymns and his most intimate poetry.

How to memorise Thirukkurunthandagam
Thirukkurunthandagam runs from pasuram 2032 to 2051 — 20 pasurams in all. The app builds a daily plan around whatever pace you choose, so the pasurams arrive in small, repeatable portions rather than all at once.
The personal plan organises the Tamil pasurams into manageable daily portions, adds recall practice and brings earlier portions back through spaced reviews. Pasurams you already know can be marked as known, and a final exam and certificate are available once a whole prabandham is complete.
