Mepathur Did not prefer to call him “Ende Guruvayurappa”

We expect the devotion drenched master piece of “Mepathu Narayana Bhattathiri (1559-1632) to call the lord of Guruvayur as “guruvayurappan or lord of Guru pavana Pura”. But he did not prefer it.

Narayaneeyam, the great book written by Meppathur has 100 dasakams ( ten verse chapters, some times around 12).In most of these Chapters Mepathur addresses his Guruvayurappa once in his last stanza . I found that out of the 100 dasakams, he has referred to Lord of Guruvayur in 80 dasakams.

Unlike our expectation he addressed him as “Lord of Guruvayur(Guru geha pura nadha)” only 4 times out of the 80

He addressed him as “Lord of city of Guru (guru pura nadha) six times out of 80

He addressed himas “Lord of city of wind(Pavana puresa , Vathaleyesa, maruth puradheesa , Vayu mandhiresa etc)” seventy times of the eighty

So it is clear he preferred to call him “God of Vayu pura” rather than Guruvayurappa
