Religion ( cmymf )

Another interesting but controversial observation in Sangam poems is the relatively meager reference given to religion in general. In the akam (`kmf )f songs, TholkAppiar has made reference to deities in the different land divisions: ThirumAl (tiRmalf ) , for mullai ( MlfAl ) , Murugan ( MRk[f) , for kuRinji (Kbiwfci ) , indhiran ( ;nftir[f )f , for marutham ( mRtmf ) , varuNan ( vR][f ) , for n^eithal ( enyftlf)and koRRavai ( ekabfbAv ) for pAlai ( paAl ).^[1]

Some scholars believe that TholkAppiar was a Jain. The following two verses are usually given in support of TholkAppiar's religious outlook: maEya[f Emy kaDAb ulkMmf EcEya[f Emy AmvAr ulkMmf Evnft[f Emy tImfp<[lf ulkMmf vR][f Emy epR m]lf ulkMmf MlfAl, Kbiwfci, mRtmf, enyftlf '[cf N\bfpa 951.
