Kandar Anubhuti

Arunagirinathar sings his experience in ‘Kandar anubhooti’. It was sung while he was in the form of a parrot.He knew the art of moving from one body to another (’koodu vittu koodu payudal’). Dropping his body, he moved into the body of a parrot.
Mistaking for death, his body was cremated and he remained in the form of a parrot! He sang about 50 or 100 (there is a debate on the number) verses in the form of the parrot. This is called ‘Anubhooti’ (the experience).
