As a bribe (I suppose) or rather as encouragement, am once more uploading the beautiful carnatic song on our ChidambaraNatha called "aananda natanaprakaasham" by Moothuswami Dikshitar sung by Bombay Jayashree. This composition was also mentioned in the excerpt pasted in the previous post.

Muthuswami Dikshitar's Ananda naTanaprakAsham
Lyrics followed by the meaning of the profound composition (I had saved the following materials from online):
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->It is part of the Panchalinga kshetra kritis
a set of 5 compositions on the <b>lingas representing the five elements</b> at kAnchipuram[earth], tiruvanaikkaval[water],tiruvannamalai[fire],kalhasti[wind] and <b>cidambaram[ether]</b><!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Lyrics:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><i>Compositions of Muddusvami Dikshitar</i> by Sangeetha Kalanidhi T. K. Govinda Rao, published in Chennai 1997 (No. 336).

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><b>AnandanatanaprakAshaM - kedAraM - mishracApu</b>
<b>Pallavi:</b>
I worship the lord of citsabha, the one who displays the blissful dance. The lord/husband of Shivakaamavalli.
<b>AnuPallavi:</b>
The one who shines like crores and crores of suns. The form of that is worshipped in the dahar akasha and one who bestows enjoyment and liberation. The one skilled in protecting the weak. The one who showed his lotus-feet to the holy devotees Patanjali and vyagrapada.
<b>Charanam:</b>
The one who wears the cool-rayed moon. The one who wears the blue robe (which is the sky); the origin of kshetras beginning with kedara. The lord of the bhootas, the one who wears the tiger-skin, the one who dwells in cidambaram, the one worshipped by the 3000 dikshitas (munis), the Lord of the universe, the one whose heart melts like butter, the one who is the father of the merciful Guruguha, the one who is known by the vedas, the one devoid of hatred, the immeasurable one who is explained by advaita or monism,the one whose music, instruments and various postures of dance answers many questions.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->(Here, is Bhusura = Sura of the Earth, Lord/Deva of the Earth?)
(I think I recall being told that Guruguha has a double meaning in Moothuswami Dikshitar's songs: it refers both to Guhan - Murugan, Shiva's son - and is Moothuswami's pseudonym as well. He 'signs' many of his songs this way.)
So now you can all sing along to it.
And do consider signing the petition to protect the beautiful temple dedicated to your Parents from the evils claws of the christoterrorist DMK.

you have the power to act only
you do not have the power to influence the result
therefore you must act without the anticipation of the result
without succumbing to inaction
